We received this wonderful feedback from Activity Coordinator, Emily Parker, when she experienced this ‘spoken from the heart' comment from one of her Sunshine club members after he had participated in the Spark of Life Club Program.
People with dementia know good things happen in our Sunshine Club because soon after one of the sessions I came to where Jack – one of our club members – lives. As soon as he saw me, his whole face lit up in a beaming smile and he turned to one of the other residents and said, ‘Over there, (meaning in the Sunshine Club) it's like a fresh dream!'
He may not have remembered what actually happened but the good feeling of the experience stayed with him.
