Doll Therapy

I gave my dear Mother one of the dolls from "doll therapy" just a few months before we had to put her into full time care. The doll is the love of her life. It is the only thing she feels safe and comfort from and with. It is the only thing that she is able to talk to freely and love and nurture. She believes she is the doll's grandmother and that the doll is real. She carries it everywhere with her and it's beautiful to see that even though she is in the penultimate stage of vascular dementia, she is still able to display the loving and nurturing part of her nature that we all had the joy of receiving over her many years. Thank you. Kate
