Actually--this turned out to be a disappointment. Kandy was written up for a health/safety violation by the Executive Director. She asked for article/photos of mini horses inside hospitals/nursing homes, etc and I sent her many. She was hoping to show the Regional Manager the articles to get the write up removed, but the RM wouldn't even look at the articles. Wow. Kandy wants to look for another job. She said it really has nothing to do with Mazie, it's more the ED has never liked her. Such a bummer. Kandy is shocked--especially after how excited the residents were at this event.
However, I've called another assisted living facility about Mazie visiting and hope to hear back. If need be, I'll take her in the spring and summer and stay outside... but that's missing out on the folks who don't come out.
