During the past years, I have provided care for my Dad afflicted with Parkinsons, a friend with breast cancer and a family member diagnosed with brain cancer. I am multi-lingual and volunteer in a local hospital as Patient Advocate and Spiritual Care Representative. I love to help and nurture the needy and comfort the afflicted and have had the opportunity to do so for many years. My passion is to make a difference. I believe in the therapeutic value and importance between animals and people and am involved with PALS ( People and Animal Learning Services ) and volunteer at Wildlife Rehabilitation and Educational Center.

    I have known Petra for 15 years or more. She is the quintessential caregiver for many reasons beginning with her empathetic, nurturing nature and Loving concern for the well being of people kind. Her 'attitude of gratitude' is inspiring and has the ability to bring one back in the moment, to enable healing to those that share her presence. She is all of the above and more. If you so wish, I would be delighted to expound further on Petra's attributes. Please feel free to contact me if I might be of service.
