Doing Some Thinking

I think that you'd be really good at that, Janet. It's sure something to think about and being a volunteer for awhile would let you know for sure if you wanted to do it.

Volunteering is a great idea! That way I'd have more of an idea if it's something I could do.

So many people up here volunteer at either the big nursing home, or the Margaretville Hospital. There's another nursing home in town where people volunteer. It is a wonderful thing, and you are so right about knowing how to meet the needs of people who are in such a vulnerable situation.

There is also a group of people who train therapy dogs, and many people take their dogs to visit these places. That sounds so nice, and the dogs love it too.
Max would be good. Annie - not so much!

It sure does take a special person to care for others, especially others who are older.

Consider home health care, too.

Great idea Sandy. As you all know...right now I have to put that on hold because of Mom. But I still think about it everyday.
