Hello world!

[NicholasA]

Hello! My name is Nicholas, and I am a Peer Mentor at the Ontario Caregiver Organization. I was a caregiver to my grandmother a few years ago while she recovered from a stroke. During the time that I helped my grandmother, I learned a lot about the importance of a strong support system that is willing to actively counsel and listen while being there for somebody. I think that a healthy balance between physical help and enabling the other party to feel their emotions are crucial to being a strong caregiving support. I’m a very sociable individual, so feel free to give me a shout if you want to chat 🙂
