Over the years some of my senior clients have given me inspiration and insights. Even though I felt I was there to help them because of their disabilities and impairments they were often the ones who gave me encouragement.
I am continually writing short stories to educate people that there are lots of smiles, laughter, and caring amongst the program providers and their clients.
