Caregiving 1 On 1 ,would like to share kindness from friends to a patient. Patient loved gardening, and after she came home from rehab and continue to recuperate at home. She quickly realize that things has changed and she had to adapt to her new normal. Her caregiver and her friends took care of her and thought it best that even though she cannot garden in the yard. They can bring it closer to her. She had a wraparound porch so they place window boxes around where she can actually reach and take of the plants. They would plant her favorite herbs and whatever plants is in season at the time of year . She is always excited when they planted pansies for her,she love the various colors especially the deep purple and the blue. She was delighted and glad they did that for her. She would often smile and say this is my gardening. She loved the idea of coming on her porch on a daily basis in great weather and smell the herbs and water her plants. She loved to bake oatmeal cookies. So she and her caregiver would bake oatmeal cookies or sometimes brownies and share with them for the kindness they extended to her.
