Life Plan Coach
I volunteer to be a life plan coach for my sister that has autoimmune disorders as well as epilepsy. Due to her being sick and going through of all of the health issues she has to deal with on a daily basis she is unlike others her age. She does not share the same level mentality someone her age may have. Therefore I am there to take her out and teach her basic life skills such as dealing with money, reading, driving ect.
