Do you need something light and fun and cheerful for your day? It doesn’t have anything to do with Alzheimer’s, except that it might brighten your day. Sometimes we need something simply to give us an uplift and inspiration.
When I read Jennifer’s post, 32 Little Green Babies, at Tree Hugging Family, a new b5media blog, I thought I simply must share it. Then I shared, in the comments section, about my family rescuing baby ducklings.
Pets and animals and birds became important in my mom’s life as Alzheimer’s progressed. She watched birds at our winter feeder. She was so attached to her cat that we moved it to our home when we moved her, even though my husband said he didn’t want to be bothered by a cat. (He was the one who thought she’d adjust more readily if Kitty came with her.)
How do nature’s creatures brighten your day and that of your Alzheimer’s family member?
ENJOY!
Thanks for the second link love — I had no clue that people would love the turtle story so much. Maybe I should only blog about cute little animals at all my blogs
Thanks for visiting and leaving your comment, Jennifer. I thought the turtle rescue such a cute story that it would brighten the day for Alzheimer’s patients and caregivers. I simply had to share it.
