Rye, NY

Thank you all - I listen to several national and global news stories about the sacrifices and challenges of healthcare workers. Whether the story is about NYC, South Korea, or Italy, I am thinking of all of you here in the Upper Valley, working so hard to protect us and save lives. Even closer to home, my parents recently moved here, to a wonderful independent living community associated APD & DH. The professional and protective environment you have helped create to keep them safe is exceptional and so appreciated. Thank you to the entire community: physicians, nurses, assistants, therapists, support staff, administrators. We are lucky to have you leading our community.

Hello!
My name is Dennis Aydin, and I am a high schooler living in Indianapolis, IN.
Like most people, I am trying to stay at home in self-quarantine and not go out and interact with other people. However, the past month has been one of the most frightening I’ve seen in my relatively short life. Every day I hear news broadcasts about the coronavirus that dishearten me. For example, a couple weeks ago, I learned that children and babies could die from the coronavirus, a critical piece of information which was completely different from what I had been hearing before then.
It’s because of information like this that I am afraid to go outside, to get close to other people, to stop washing my hands every couple minutes. However, I feel less afraid because I know that there are teams of people out there trying to help us all survive this crisis, often risking their personal physical and mental well-being. It's because of your brave actions that I have started my campaign to send thank you notes to hospitals across the nation and around the world. Healthcare workers have become invaluable in the fight against COVID-19 and they all need a gesture of appreciation. I know that there aren’t as much resources available as there should be, and your bravery and humanity in trying to help coronavirus patients as well as all the other cases you have, during this time is incredible and admirable. I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for all the hard work that you are doing for both the COVID-19 patients and for the community. Thank you so much for your leadership and your aid.


Sincerely,
Indianapolis, IN

We had a message up in our windows that face the parking garage for employees and patients alike to see and although it was beautiful from the view inside, it was not legible outside. We have updated it. Being in Pediatrics, we thought a message from Winnie the Pooh was appropriate... "You are stronger than you know, Braver than you think and more loved than you imagine!" Stay well everyone! We're all in this together!
