Blog July 3rd
Yesterday, I completely forgot to tell you about something AWESOME that happened to one of the patients of the Hogar. Cristina, who suffered from a stroke a year ago and a hip fracture about 6 months ago, has been working really hard since we got he
re in order to improve her health condition. In fact, she goes to therapy three times a week and constantly walks from one end to another of the Hogar. Seriously, I have never seen anyone so determined and persevering in my life: she wakes up everyday with the same positive attitude despite the hard comments she gets sometimes. Monday, July 2nd, at 12h17, this woman was able to come down the ramp in front of the dining room all by herself. She was so happy that she asked us to take a picture with her and she called us her guardian angels, which was heartwarming and made us feel kind of important for the first time (in my case at least).
