We would like to give a huge shout out to our amazing nursing staff who have continued to provide superb care to our residents despite all the COVID issues. It's been 2 years now and we're still doing our best to protect our precious kiddos from COVID and our staff have endured endless hours of working in an N95 mask. The Omicron surge was brutal, as was the nursing shortage. But our staff have been astounding and are so dedicated and resilient. We sincerely appreciate every employee we have. Some of them are behind the scenes, some of them are hands on, but all of them are committed to providing a loving, safe home for every resident in our care. We all love what we do and it shows. THANK YOU!!

"To the man in 2D. Today, you were traveling from Orlando to Philly. I don’t know you, but I imagine you saw us somewhere. I was pushing a stroller, had a diaper bag on my arm, and was also lugging an oxygen machine for my daughter. We had smiles on our faces as we were headed to see her 'friends' at CHOP (Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia). We pre- boarded the plane, got cozy in our window seat, and made jokes to those around us about having to sit by my yelling-but-happy baby. The flight attendant came over and told me you were waiting to switch seats. You were giving up your comfortable, first class seat to us.

Not able to hold back tears, I cried my way up the aisle while my daughter, Lucy, laughed! She felt it in her bones too... real, pure, goodness. I smiled and thanked you as we switched, but didn’t get to thank you properly.

Sooo... thank you. Not just for the seat itself but for noticing. For seeing us and realizing maybe things are not always easy. For deciding you wanted to show a random act of kindness to US. It reminded me how much good there is in this world. I can’t wait to tell Lucy someday. In the meantime... we will pay it forward. AA 588 passenger in seat 2D, we truly feel inspired by your generosity."
