Patricia here. Today, I had the opportunity to apply for a volunteer postion at the Hospice Center described above. So much paperwork to fill out that it was rather overwhelming. But basically, I "have the job" if my criminal record comes back clean!?! I confessed to the gal interviewing me that I often threatened to shoplift when my twins were little, desperately hoping that I might be able to spend a night in jail and finally get a good night's sleep, but alas, I never followed through with the plan! Thankfully, she will not hold this against me.
I have a few options with this new volunteer program; I can help with the administrative office needs, or I can work with the hospice chaplain and assist families of hospice patients. Both require training seminars, which I am happy to attend in the new year when the next training session is scheduled. It's all so intriguing....and worthwhile...and truly a wonderful way to give support and offer friendship to those who need it most.
I'm really looking forward to this next chapter of living and giving.....the journey continues.
