About the Author

Myrtle Sobers was born in Trinidad. With a background in Economics, Business and Insurance, she became an Administrative Officer, in the Telecommunications Services of Trinidad and Tobago. On immigrating to Canada, she furthered her interest in business with a business diploma in Mohawk College in Hamilton, Ontario. Although nursing was never on her radar, her mother’s bout with Alzheimer and dementia, awoke in her the compassion and desire to care for those in need. Now a nurse in long-term caregiving, Myrtle considers her purpose fulfilled when she can give comfort, cheer and caring to the patients under her care.
