Jan 3, 2011 • Just wanted to wish you all a belated Happy New Year! 🙂 I’m really hoping this year will be a better one for both me and Deepwell!
I’ve personally had a very rough year. Between beginning my search for a caregiver, doctors appointments, and another hospitalization, I’ve just barely had a chance to catch my breath. But largely due to the support of all of you I’ve made it through, and I hope you all know how thankful I am!
Ever since I read touching story about her son Logan’s ability to make a difference and another moving story about a girl named Abigail, I’ve been thinking about what positive impact I can make on Deepwell instead of waiting for Deepwell to come to me. Right now I’m working on setting up something with the local elementary school like Walkernomore suggested. Taking some time to get the details sorted out. But I’m looking forward to getting out there and working with the kids! It would be a lot easier to arrange if I had a caregiver to help me get to and from and assist me while I’m there. So of course my search continues. I have some potential caregiver interviews set up this week. We’ll see…
Well, don’t schedule any caregiver interviews on Thursday mornin, girl, because Sheawn and I are coming over to do your hair! First things first…
Happy New Year to you, Hannah, and to all of the Deepwellians. You’ve persevered through so many challenges last year. I pray that in 2011 you’ll find a caregiver who’ll make it easier for you to care for others. Would you consider posting your list of requirements? Among all of us there must be someone who’d be a good fit for you if we had a better understanding of your needs.
Thank you for linking to Donielle Watkins’ story about her precious, generous, and caring son Logan. I’d missed reading that one last November. It reminded me that sometimes we get caught up in the idea that we have to do the right thing or say the right thing or bring the right thing when all that’s needed is to be present, listen and give a hug.
