That is such a nice thing to do for your mom and the other residents.

When my mother was in the nursing home in the 90's with Alzheimers, in the summer, I would wheel her out on the porch and quilt. So many of the patients came out and we all talked. It was such a claming effect for me and I think for then also. When it was winter, we sat in the larger "Great Room".

Mom is gone now and I miss this time we had together and with those in the nursing home.

What a wonderful story, and what a wonderful idea! This might work for several handcrafts! How thoughtful of both you and the other caregivers, to recognize the benefit and spread it around!

Thank you for sharing - both your story and the time spent with others at the home besides your mom. You are truly brightening their day.
