Hi! My name is Ashley. I am 32 years old, I have 4 kids and a disabled husband. My two oldest children are technically my nieces, I adopted them as babies when their parents died. It was an easy decision as I loved them as my own and I love taking care of people, I've always been the mama bear sort towards even strangers. I also have multiple sclerosis but thus far it does not effect me in a serious manner *knocks on wood* so I know some what the effects of a serious illness and having to occasionally depend on others. I love jobs like this because I like knowing that I can treat someone how I would want to be treated when my illness does become more serious and I take pride in it. I just genuinely care about people and it makes me happy to help others.
