I had been close to my grandfather since I was a young child. He was kind, patient, everything I thought someone should be. He died when I was seventeen and I was devastated. It wasn't until some time later that I realized the pieces of him that have lived on the through us: my mom's smile and laugh, my brother's love of history.

That piece of me should come from the most caring part of myself. To me, it is the reason we are called care givers.
