notes from Lynne on how to help

Things may change. We don’t know when Janet will be coming home from the hospital or what kind of home care she’ll be getting through Kaiser.

Until she feels better, the dogs will not be home (probably for a couple of weeks after the surgery). Once they’re home, she’ll need someone to help walk and clean up after them. She may also need people to do some shopping, dishes, laundry or running errands for her.

There are lots of places to sign up to help. Please don’t feel you need to help more than once a week (of course you can if you want to).

If you sign up for a date and time, please be there or arrange for someone to take your place.

Each day there should be two people signed up to help (one in the morning – after 8 AM – and one in the late afternoon). There are also two extra weekly signup spaces. Once a week she may need someone to water her outside plants and someone else to go to the library to exchange books.
