The pets were a big hit again...

We had a large group and everyone was eager to participate. The residents and patients were excited to see us and some of them remembered us from our last visit. Their eyes lit up and they would smile as we approached them. We took some of them outside where they made comments like “I am bathing in this beautiful sun” and “I haven’t felt the wind on my face in a long time”.

We had a group of Spanish speaking individuals with us on this trip which was wonderful because there are a lot of Spanish speaking people at the facility and our communications with them in the past was limited. After we were done the group came to me with tears in their eyes and thanked us for allowing them this opportunity to serve.

The pets were a big hit again and we even had a couple of small children there that brought huge smiles to the residents and patients.

Thanks again and let me know where and when you need my help next time.
