Yes, there is a raw friendly convelescent home

[Guest guest]

Greetings all,

 

This is part One of a new series of writings I am doing to educate us all on who

is in our raw community and what they are up to. If you are new to the scene or

have been here awhile, you may not know all the raw majic that is happening in

our own back yard. So here I am to tell you all about it.

 

This week's feature is a snippet about Doreen from www.sereneviewmanor.com

 

Enjoy, let me know what you think (contact me through SmartRawFood.com) My

intention is that you learn something you didn't know before and find out who is

" out here " with you.

 

 

 

Seems like more often is the case, we don't realize what we know until someone

is talking to us or throw a thought out in conversation. This was the case the

other day when I was at a potluck.

 

So there I was at a raw potluck last week and overheard someone say they wish

there was a raw assisted living or convelescent home. *I have heard this more

than once in the last 4 years of my RawHood.

 

This time I just had to pipe in with my aha moment of knowledge- Over the years

I have had contact with so many wonderful people making a difference in lives of

others. I met Doreen about 3 years ago when I had the restuarant, dalene's. She

came in and introduced herself and what she was up to. I had immediate respect

for her, her vision, and its disign. At the time of our meeting, she was looking

for a raw chef to add to the care at the home she manages.

 

Doreen is an amazing person and if you have not met her yet, I hope you contact

her and find out what she is up to. Her dream and desire to assist others in the

later stages of their lives to have the best quality of life possible is as

wonderful as she is.

 

I checked in with her before posting this to make sure she is still in the

business of making peoples lives a joy. Here is an excerpt of what she said. Her

grandmother lives in the home she owns and manages. I thought it poinent, her

last words of the email " we have to make every bite or sip count " . While I

believe this true for all of us, it is especially caring to provide this

opportunity for our elderly population that may have had a lifetime of other

options that brought them to the decline other than old age.

 

Here is an excerpt of our email conversation (with the blessing of Doreen)

 

" By the way, we make Green Smoothies every morning, and it is the mainstay of my

grandmothers diet. That is probably the only thing keeping her alive at the

moment, she loves them. She is really frail and it is hard to get much food in

her, so we have to make every bite or sip count. "

Check out her website, contact her and find out what she has going on. You never

know who might want this kind of loving care.
