There are certain things I take for granted:
The ability to swallow….. Suctioning is most terrible yet highly necessary
The ability to scratch an itch….. Imagine pushing the call button every time
Having visitors….. There are never many visitors
Being able to go out myself and visit….. Even DATS doesn’t go far enough
My mental health….. I might be weird but I am still here
There is so so so much more. Life is hard at the Good Sam’s. But it’s also so good. Wonderful, wonderful staff! And with all the hardship, people are still happy. Even the far gone ones will give you a smile when you say, “Oh you look sad!” It’s very touching.
I am really learning a lot.
PS- My feet REALLY stink.
