As Christmas approaches, many of us eagerly anticipate the warmth of family gatherings, the return of children from university, and the joy of spending time with beloved grandchildren. However, for some families, this season brings a different kind of anticipation—one filled with uncertainty and the daunting task of finding a safe and caring place for a parent or spouse who now needs 24-hour care. These families often grapple with the heart-wrenching question: Will our loved one be understood and cared for?
We deeply understand the emotional weight of this transition. Under the compassionate leadership of Rosanne Yaremko, our dedicated team works tirelessly to provide not just care, but a sense of connection and belonging. Our circle of care includes our incredible volunteers, generous donors, and the families we serve. This year, thanks to your unwavering support, we have achieved remarkable milestones: purchasing new mattresses, renovating FLCC’s dining room, providing essential support resources for families, and acquiring much-needed mobility equipment. We are profoundly grateful for your contributions!
One particularly touching story comes from a family whose mother was hospitalized. Her heartfelt wish was to return to us, not because we are just another facility, but because to her, we are “home.” The compassionate care she received from her health care aide provided her with the familiarity and peace she so desperately needed.
As we embrace this holiday season, we invite you to continue supporting our mission to care for seniors. Your generosity enables us to provide essential equipment, engaging recreational programs, and vital building improvements. These contributions not only enhance the physical well-being of our residents but also offer emotional and spiritual support that nurtures their hearts and souls.
Thank you for your kindness and for being an integral part of our community. Together, we can make a profound difference in the lives of those who need it most.
