Theodore

11/11/24 Theodore

Aegis Living’s life enrichment program in the memory care area includes a daily gratitude talk. Interested residents gather around Theodore, the staff member who runs it, and he engages them in discussions about ways to see the positive side of whatever life brings them. The first time I happened to be visiting Greg when it was time for gratitude, I was so impressed by Theodore’s approach, which was soothing as well as positive. He reminds me of Mr. Rogers in all the best ways. (In a previous job, Theodore was a meditation coach, which explains his relaxed and soothing manner.)

Still reeling days after the election, I planned some of my visits so that I would be there for the gratitude time, which I sorely needed.


11/6/24 This is a sketch diary entry I made from a photo of Theodore teaching Greg how to play a board game.
