The Young One

The Young One: Short Storis of My Nursing Home Experiences is about time I spent in nursing homes recovering from a serious car accident. The road to recovery was long and arduous yet rewarding. Time spent with the residents in these homes led to stories that touched my heart and even brought a smile to my face when I needed it badly. It touches on the resident's frailty and needs, as well as stories of full and well lived lives. It changed me in so many ways as to how I perceive the elderly in my life. My heart is to capture the essence of these residents and bring attention to their importance in our society. Barbara Hunt is a New Englander at her core, having resided in Connecticut all her life. She loves to read, sew counted cross stitch and spend time with her family. She serves in a local church as an altar minister and Bible Study Teacher. Her heart is one of prayer and ministering to those in need. She has always had a love for the elderly even during her professional Dental Hygiene career and was very close with her grandparents. This book will reveal that heart in these short stories
