Leah’s Bio
I have been a personal caregiver for my mother for the past 3 years. I have come to appreciate the elderly and disabled. I bathe, do all housekeeping , write out and pay all the bills, laundry (as needed), shopping, medication monitoring, care for her pet cat and cooking meals daily. Spending this quality time with my mother for the past 3 years has given me a deeper understanding of the aging process and the care that is involved. I find it to be a very rewarding life that I lead. We sit for hours and talk about the past and future. I see that sparkle in her eyes and the thankfulness in her heart. I also was a Support Coordinator and had a caseload of 40 older adults with developmental and mental disabilities. I transported and interacted with these adults five days a week. I find it rewarding to give back to people in need with a smile on my face.
