Thankful Optimism

Demala R, a volunteer from Bloomfield High School, speaks about how thankful she is for health care workers and how hopeful she is for the future.

During these difficult times it is important for everyone to help each other and support one another. Which makes me think about the nurses at our homes and thank them for being kind, caring, loving, fun and more. It is not easy to be in this predicament however I do know that while it is very sad that we can not see our seniors but that they are in amazing hands as the days go by. I hope all nurses know that we greatly appreciate and are thankful for their hard work!

As this virus takes more days away from everyone it is very sad. I look forward to those monthly Saturdays and hope that we can get back on track very soon. I feel sympathy for not only every GG member, but those in the homes who don't get visits and are counting on us to be there. But, I know that we will be back to connect very soon with snacks and nail polish. I believe that with the letters and more great ideas that come will shed light on this pandemic. This makes me feel grateful to be a part of an amazing opportunity.
