New adventures!
Hello all. I hope the spring weather is finding everything well and reinvigorating your spirits! I have taken on new adventures in the past couple of weeks. I have been working in a care unit rehabilitating individuals with neurological impairments and traumatic brain injuries. I was leery of this work at first, because I grew so very attached to the little ones I was previously working with. However, I find that the challenge of working in neurology is rewarding.
I have clients that range from teens through older adults. Each story and case is different. My heart goes out to the families and individuals who have experienced a traumatic accident that has completely changed the lives of those involved. Can you imagine losing your ability to communicate, walk, express, and be independent? My job is to get those skills back! I work every day to help these individuals work toward independence and achieving their prior level of function.
One of my clients found out that I was the reigning Miss Heart and showed up to my session with a paper crown!!! What a riot. I so admire the ability to never lose your sense of humor.
Wish everyone the best and signing off from the Heart.
Kaley
