Lynne’s friend Nancy knows how to give Lynne a visit. Here’s Nancy’s report.
Lynne had a tour with me, Nancy, in Kathy’s beautiful Porsche Tuesday! We hung out a while at aegis on her floor and then fed Lynne her dinner. R., one of the second-floor caregivers, was amazing, super responsive, and helpful. They opened her apartment and brought the dinner to us so we could eat in private. We had a good conversation.
Then Lynne wanted to skip dessert and blow the joint. We found the hat by the bed and put her coat on her, got her down, and checked her out. We walked up the driveway into the sun when the cold breeze hit. Lynne complained it was cold, but there was Kathy’s beautiful ride and Lynne decided maybe she’d check it out. Then somehow, with me on one side and Kathy on the other, we got her down to the low sling of the bucket seat. I jumped in back and Kathy drove us around to Madison Park and through the Arboretum until Lynne told us she was ready to go home. We returned her and took her up to her room to get her settled in. We were both rewarded with big hugs for our efforts. Getting her into the car was a near miracle!
Kathy said, “Nancy’s persistence paid off!”
Nancy shrugged it off. “Having a good laugh about it all. It’s a team effort. When everyone believes it can happen.”
Kathy said, “What a wonderful way to spend the afternoon with our friend!”
This and the last one are so beautiful. That smile when she’s getting in the car made my day!
Love you!
