FROM
Columbia, Missouri
WHY I AM HERE
My grandfather was newly diagnosed Diabetic with multiple foot ulcers. He needed someone to assist him with administering his insulin, bandaging his foot, and performing glucose testing and monitoring to report back to his primary care, endocrinologist, and podiatrist. My mom was an only child and my siblings were all afraid of needles. My Grandfather and I were extremely close because I was his first grandchild. I wanted him to be well and around for a long time. So despite my fears I learned how to provide him the care that he needed to receive. He encouraged me to proceed with some type of degree in Nursing because he thought I was good at it.
