Patricia, 60, came to ABODE quite unresponsive – no eye contact, no cues that she was listening to us or understanding our words. Yet when her son, Stephon, arrived for a visit, she perked right up and the two began talking and joking just as moms and sons do. We were astonished! And we’re grateful that Patricia was able to spend some special time with her son and other loved ones before she passed away quietly and peacefully in her sleep.
