My interest in our older generation began in childhood. In 8 th grade I volunteered weekly at the local nursing home visiting the residents. I also was lucky enough to have a great grandmother who was very old but the love she showed made her easy to love back. More recently I lived with my two parents in their 70's both dying from cancer. I managed medication. Provided light meals and house cleaning. Assisted with bathing and dressing. Managed medical appointment s and attended each appointment. Provided companionship most importantly. I thrived at caring for my parents. I can do the same for yours. I do have a College degree in human development and my own car with perfect driving record.
