Sometimes our loved ones feel lost and upset because they do not have a purpose. They feel that they are no longer needed or wanted. A little thing that can help them is something or someone to love and care for. Now, they may not be able to actually care for a child or a pet, but it is amazing how many times a baby doll or a stuffed animal can give them that sense of purpose and love. Here are some options to try.
