Christina J. - New York Special Needs Caregiver

Profile of Christina J.

Part-Time, 0 Years of Experience

For many months, as a teenager, I took care of my mother who had breast cancer and subsequently died of it. So, dealing with sickness is something that strikes a deep cord in me. I myself had breast cancer (luckily survived it for the last 17 years), hip joints replaced, and other afflictions that I have had to deal with as a single person. This has given me both empathy for people in similar situations, and the grit to make the best of it with such difficult situations.
Related Hobbies and Interests
I am a single person coping with physical and psychologically related difficulties, and I have also helped other persons in similar situations.
