Seeing this dog’s recovery reminded me how we all need to be patient with patients.

We cannot expect patients to get better overnight. Through extreme care and compassion, we can give them the groundwork for getting better.

For that adorable dog to be able to walk again, it required teamwork.

Life isn’t about going through things alone, you need your own crew.

A crew that you can rely on when you need a little push. So if there’s anyone out there that needs the push, don’t be afraid to reach out to somebody.

In this world where everyone has their own obstacles and struggles, let’s push each other up to do great things and just like this dog, to walk freely.

Today we have a delightful story from Dr. Anil Harrison and an accompanying video of his incredible singing.

“I had a 107 year old patient and her daughter in her 80s who were English classical singers

The older lady asked if I sang ?

I said no, but I can bray !

One day after much pestering I gave in and attempted to sing a couple of songs for them…”

Below is Dr. Harrison’s video of him singing. In these stressful and uncertain times due to COVID-19, it is important to remember to relax when you can. There are so many healthcare workers who have posted themselves singing and dancing to lift spirits. If you have found yourself in a singing or dancing mood send us a video to share!

Kathleen Ellis, a Lodi Kindergarten teacher, created two music videos for her students amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. The goal was to promote distance learning since school has been closed for the time being. The first song is called “log on and count with me” (from ‘Shut up and Dance” by WALK THE MOON) and the second song is called “Isolation” (from “Celebration” by Kool and the Gang) My sister is awesome!
