Our Debut

We're back from the nursing home and I have to tell you all....my Scotty is just amazing! He was SO good. And those old folks just lit up when they saw him. One lady wanted to keep him. Said he could sleep right there in her bed with her. lol

First lady we went to see was in bed. We put Scotty right up in the bed with her and she petted and petted him. I gave her a treat to give him and she just smiled when he ever so gently took it from her hand.

Found out later that they don't expect her to make it through the weekend.

Another lady just talked and talked and talked to us (the activity director took us around the first time) and to Scotty. When we left her room, the director talked about how wonderful it was. I hadn't a clue what she meant. Then she explained that the woman had not been able to even carry on a conversation since she'd been in the nursing home! Scotty opened her right up!

They told us to come back any time we wanted, as often as we wanted and stay as long as we want. They're delighted to have us! How cool is that?
