You can make a wish, but then you have to do the wish.
Wishes don't just happen!!!
What is Julie's Wish?
Not Everybody Has Somebody....I say it often.
Not everyone plans a funeral for a stranger....I talk about it less often.
My Wish is that nobody feels forgotten.
Last year I had an experience and got to serve as Guardian for a gentleman that I hadn't met before.
He was to have surgery, go to rehab, then go back to his normal life, but ended up being terminal and died. Even though he passed away, it was a Beautiful and Impactful thing for me.
When I was making the funeral arrangements for this stranger, what struck me most was that he was loved and cared for the most by the Staff of Haviland Care Center.
They have also cared for my brother for the past 5 years with the same amount of Love.
I wanted to do something for them to show my appreciation for all they do for a faction of people that are often forgotten.
Mental Illness has affected my life and family personally, and I often wonder what will happen to my brother if he outlives me, my family, or those that could care for him.
He has not been able to make friends like a lot of us have, he can't communicate very well at times and can be a lot for someone to process if they have not been around him.
To me, he has been a gift in my adult life....he makes me appreciate all of the little blessings....
or at least acknowledge how fortunate I am even on the bad days.
As a child, Jesse was Extremely Smart, and he still is!
He has always been super Funny and often likes to let his wit shine.
I am honored both to be his sister, and to have the staff at Haviland Care Center care for him.
I owe them the world.
Thank YOU for helping me help them!!!!

Not Everybody has Somebody.
More people than we realize often find themselves without family, or someone to care for them. Whether they have been forgotten, have outlived family, or burned bridges....they still matter. The Staff at Haviland Care Center cares for and loves them all.
