A Robe For Helen: Small Acts Of Kindness

by Jon Katz

A Mansion aide told me that Helen did not have a warm robe to wear as the winter approaches. I went to my Thrift Store Network and found a beautiful fuzzy blue robe that zippers all the way down from the front.

Helen was very grateful for it, and surprised. She and Red are great pals and we visited with her for a bit. It makes me feel very good inside that Helen has a clean nearly new fuzzy  bathrobe to use when she showers or reads in her room.

Helen is very shy and quiet, but she is a passionate dog lover and she is always happy to see Red. Tonight, our farmhouse is cold, swept by wind from across the pasture.

She was so happy to have it.

I’m glad Helen has her robe. It cost $14. Small acts of great kindness.
