About Dorothy

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I have been working with seniors a long time. I like to see life brought back into them when they start to feel better, or learn to walk again, or just have someone to talk with. I have cared for many seniors in the past. The last two stand out the most. My last gentleman was full of history and was an expert at finances. He taught me how to use the stock market and helped me get a portfolio started. He was 96 when he left this earth. My lady was 78. She was a gypsie type of person. She always had a great outlook about like. She enjoyed everyday of her life and she loved to laugh. She recently left this earth in Dec. 2020. I am currently working with a lady now (84) years young. She has slight dementia and considerable medical problems, but she doesn't let anyone or anything get her down. She is very into her garden. She has an incredible green thumb. I feel seniors have a lot to offer and I have a Lot to learn from each and every one of them.
