The Power of Human Connection
Lucy’s narrative is a testament to the power of listening, sharing, and preserving the stories of those whose lives are often relegated to the background in our fast-paced world. Her dedication to bringing these stories to the forefront is a poignant reminder of our shared humanity and the deep, often unexplored connections that bind us together. It is through the simple yet profound act of visiting with those in long-term care that we, too, can uncover the stories that need to be told, the memories that deserve to be honored, and the voices that echo with the wisdom of lived experience.
A Mosaic of Lives
‘Remember Me As HUMAN’ is not just Lucy’s story; it’s a mosaic of lives, a collection of human experiences that resonate with the core of what it means to be human. Through her narrative, Lucy invites us to reflect on the importance of memory, the value of human connection, and the indelible impact we have on each other’s lives. Her work beautifully illustrates how the act of bearing witness to the lives of others enriches our own existence, offering us insights into the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of empathy and companionship.
The Role of Volunteers
This book serves as a powerful reminder that when we step into the world of long-term care volunteering, we do not merely give our time; we receive the gift of stories, the privilege of connection, and the honor of contributing to the legacy of those we meet. It highlights the truth that each visit, each conversation, and each moment shared is a thread in the tapestry of our collective human experience. As volunteers, we become the custodians of these precious narratives, carrying them forward, ensuring they are remembered and cherished.
A Call To All of Us
The publication of ‘Remember Me As HUMAN’ is a milestone not only for Lucy but for all of us who believe in the transformative power of storytelling. It is a call to action, urging us to engage with the people living in long-term care communities, to listen deeply, and to share what we learn. In doing so, we too become authors, crafting stories that bridge generations, heal the soul, and celebrate the essence of what it means to be human.

In the end, it’s not just about the stories we tell, but the connections we forge and the lives we touch that truly define our humanity.
