My parents have raised my sister and I, but my mother has been such a strenth within my life and the lives of some many other people. My mom is a LPN, Which is a truely selfless profession. While I was a little girl she wnet to school to get her LPN lincene and worked full time in nursing homes caring for the elderly. In my early teen’s she started doing home health care with kids who were disabled. My mom had a lot of kids that she cared for, but there was this very special little boy that she started caring for when he was four. At that time my mother was told that the child was not suppose to live past the age of six. With that in mind she tried not to get to attached to him, Although it was so hard, he was the sweetest little boy that you would ever want to meet and his grandparent who had full parental right were the most caring people I have ever met. To make a long story short … His grandmother died in 2005, which left his granfather his sole provide. At that point he asked my parents if they would share parental right in case something happened to him. The little boy is now 17 years old and still giving his love and sprit to everyone who comes in contact with him, with the exceptions of the nurses at the hospital.
However, some time ago she started working for the Red Cross, Drawing blood. She doesn’t like traveling that much any more, but she loves her job and her co-workers.
So my mother is a full time Nurse with the American Red Cross and a full time care taker of my our family. I cannot thank her enough for all that she does. Not only for her family, but also for people that she will never even meet.
