Thanks Judy! I just know how embarassed Mom was about certain things being done and I would like to make people more comfortable in those situations. Of course I can't right now, but who's to say in the future...we're never too old.....are we?

When the time is right, you might try to do some volunteering, just to get your foot in the door and see what you might like to do!
We certainly need more people like you who are empathetic to the needs of others. It is so important and some people just don't have a clue!

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!
