The old guy next door

[Rye Miles]

There's an old guy next door to me, 93 yrs old to be exact. He has dementia and every morning he knocks on my door and asks me if I've seen his wife. I tell him every day that his wife died 10 years ago! Geeez, oh man, I thought about moving or just not answering the door anymore........

But I just can't ignore him because I love to see the smile on his face when I tell him about his wife!

My Dear Rye -

right now, you are doing more for this man than you can imagine.
you are his link to other people
you are his link to his wife
you are the stabilizing influence in his world.

if you can manage to take 15-30 minutes out of your day, you might consider inviting him in for coffee.
He is nearing the end of his story, and absolutey anything you can do for him is gold,
and perhaps he has some nuggets of gold for you
