Don't Hesitate Like I Did “I would certainly recommend having your knee replaced, if necessary,” Dan says. “It will give you a new lease on life. Don’t hesitate — don’t do like me and wait until you fall. Go see about it, and get it taken care of!” Dan Champaigne

Achieving Independence During my time as a resident, I tried to help friends who couldn’t do for themselves. I would love to come back and visit as a volunteer to give comfort and companionship to the people who can’t leave like I can. Making friends here is both easy and difficult because some of the friends I made passed on from this life. It’s important to me to make them happy and keep their spirits up while they’re still here, so they can find love, peace and joy—that’s what this place is all about. Johnny Worthen
