Making cards to send to our dear friends, those ladies in our retirement community in various stages of cognitive decline, is a great way to stay connected. We use a “thinking of you” theme to send a cheerful message.
The cards we make offer a variety of designs…from those we color to those we create by combining different textures and shapes or by using computer-generated clip art.
Each card represents a way to show that we care. We’re told that the dear friends who receive our cards continue to look at them for days after we send them and that the impression of feeling valued by someone stays with them longer than we would imagine. We’ve done this for years and the result is always the same…the recipient feels appreciated and loved.
It’s worth your time and effort to help your friends and loved ones in various stages of decline be encouraged with a card.
Receiving a “thinking of you” card can increase a person’s feelings of self-esteem and self-worth. It lets them know someone wants to connect in a personal way. Those in various stages of cognitive decline tend to feel isolated and alone. Cards such as the ones the Lady-Links send to their dear friends can help promote feelings of being valued and connected. We love to stay “linked” to our dear friends….that’s why we’re called Lady-Links…and our card connection helps us do just that.
