Today Alanah, Jess, Tom, Alex, Ryley and I went to Riddell creek garden age care facility. It was very quite and calm. At first I was very nervous but after I started to talk to some people I got more comfortable with talking to them, I was able to talk to more people. We went to the part of the home where the people there had dementia and they forgot a lot of thing s really quickly. They were all so tired and quiet. but at the same time they were lovely and kind and made sure we had everything.
The lady I was talking to, she asked me the same question a lot and I had to keep the same answer over and over again. When teatime came around, they gave out biscuits and the lady I was talking to gave me a biscuit. I then needed a drink and I went and asked for one. when I came back she had gotten out = other biscuit and she split it in half and gave me the bigger half. She barely got any of her 2 biscuits and I got more. Because she offered it to me I didn't have the heart to no.
I think it was a really god experience for them and for me. I Think it was good for them to talk to someone other than the other people who live there and the people who work there. I really think it was good for me to see other people in my community. Ireall ywant to go back
