About Tomeka

I am a kind, caring, patient, understanding and very loving person. I became a caregiver to my mother about 20 years ago. She had been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis which eventually crippled her. I supported her with very many of her daily living needs. Which I enjoyed doing ...so I decided that I would do it for a living. Being a caregiver for me is very rewarding. I enjoy helping people and seeing them achieve the independence that they are seeking. I lost my mother at the end of 2019 but being her caregiver for so many years allowed me to spend a lot of time with her. Now I enjoying caring for others.

So writing about myself is a little weird, but let me start by saying this is my God calling. I have left taking care of people and tried different things but nothing fulfills me like caring for other people in their time of need. I am bubbly, and very knowledgeable in job.

First there is God, with God you can become a caregiver, he put love in your heart for people, all people.i have 5 children plus 3 step children and 29 grandchildren all together a lot of love going on. There are a lot of people out there that need a lot of taking care of and they need someone that cares. What I like about being a caregiver is the love that you get in return, not all the time in difficult cases but you know it's there. My personal achievement is when I went to Miller-Motte to become a phlebotomist while working a full time and part time job I look back now and wonder how I made it.
