February 06 … Caring for the Ill

Go to a local hospital and head to the cancer ward (or other part of the facility where terminally ill patients are staying).  Bring a flowering plant (avoid cut flowers that will soon wilt) … Visit with the patients there — Listen to their stories, bring them cartoons or tell them jokes.  Tell them about your own Life (only if they ask) … Be Kind to them.

Bonus Activity:  Before you leave offer to fulfill a patient’s “dying wish”.  Keep offering until you find someone who accepts your offer … Then head out and get to it!
