Important Lessons

 
Teaching the value of human-animal bonding is an important lesson that I felt needed to be shared with my Grandsons Kyle and Evan who were visiting Us this summer.  So this past week, Cora and I with the help of Poppy visited with our friends at Mayo Clinic Hospital.  Seeing the expressions on their faces as Cora interacted with patients was "priceless".  I can only hope that they always remember that a simple act of kindness, a gentle touch or smile will brighten the day for someone in need of a little sunshine in their life.

A furry Blessing!

Today at Mayo the spouse of a patient commented "What a God send you have been for Me "! T he past few week s Cora has been a source of light for her in a dark time . Re flecting back on that makes me realize even more the need and benefits that therapy animals bring to everyone that they encounter.  Often times the caregivers hold a lot of emotion and turmoil inside of themselves, watching their loved ones fig ht this disease.  Cora has been there for them , providing a few mo ments of relief by helping to ease the stress.   It's good to hear the laughter and see the smiles that surface when we arrive.  Cora senses their need for calm and as you can see in the picture above, gives a reassuring touch .  What a Bles sing !
