Dear Sir / Madam

I am a compassionate being. From a tender age, helping family, neighbours and friends without knowing was part of my growing up. I would do their chores, escort them to the clinic, water their garden and keep them company. Unfortunately, I became a go to person and oftenly felt used, until I decided to take it as a calling since I could never say no to a person in need. 2014, my son suffered electric burns, being in the hospital every day, tired of just waiting, I found myself lending a helping hand in the hospital with bathing children, feeding them and cleaning their Ward. 2018, my father suffered a stroke that left his right side paralysed. I then decided to volunteer in a Hospice so as to equip myself with knowledge to relay to my father and his carers as he had retired and gone back to his birth country.

Having said this, I believe by joining your Care Team, you would have gained an asset to your company. Hard working, mature women, a team player and an individual who strives in making a better day even she is broken herself. Thank you for your time and hope to hear from you soon. Sincerely

MERLIN T NGWENYA
