We recently received this postcard message from the parents of a successful graduate. I omitted the names to protect confidentiality.
"Dear John and Dawn –
Thank you for the care, concern, comfort, opportunities, guidance, direction and a holistic approach you have provided for our daughter in a quest for a healthful life. Your efforts have been tremendous.
We want you to know we will continue to support her in the best way we can in the future.
We pray she will reward all in the circle with life commencing and good behavior. Thank you"
Their daughter, a middle-aged professional, faced her share of challenges before graduating. She had problems sleeping. She broke a bone. Another client had a psychotic episode and threatened her.
But she stuck around. She used our services to her advantage. And today there are rewards in her life: She now has a relationship with her grown children. She has an apartment. She’s back at her old job.
Postcards like this are gratifying to the whole staff.
