Coming together

At first I was going to title this segment Come together, after one of the lyrics in a Beatles songs. Unfortunately I did not have the permission from Paul McCartney to use the title so this will have to do. Anyway I want to update all of my followers on my progress so far. I met with Mrs. Kimberly Ward on Monday at the Hospice house to pitch my idea and plans for my project. Before we really started getting into the details  she asked me if I knew what went on at this establishment. I said it is a place for terminally ill patients to rest and recover. Apparently I was wrong the majority of the patients that check in don’t check out. She said that the average life span for a patient was about a week! Right then and there I asked myself if I can actually make a connection with these people in such a short period of time. Then I had this feeling that someone wanted me to press on it was like God himself came down and wiped all my doubts and fears. He has placed this heavy task on my shoulders, and I will succeed. As I answered Mrs. Kimberly that I would do it despite the hardships I never wavered and was completely sincere. After this she explained to me that I would have to take a volunteer training course and a tb test, hopefully proof of my vaccination will suffice. My next accomplishment I completed this week was meeting with Mrs. Lillian Brown, the director at White Oak and discussing my plans with her. Unfortunately I had a guitar lesson and had to keep our meeting short, but I plan on visiting with her and setting specific times to come in to visit and play.
