VOLUME 36 #1
FROM THE DESK OF FATHER BLANEY...
I understand that some parents of other abled people have listed in their wills that upon
their death, I should be called to take care of their other abled child. I have never agreed to
that nor will I ever agree to it.
First of all, Sharing Meadows is a wonderful place. But it is not for everyone who is
other abled. (We’re talking about our residential program.) There is criteria for acceptance.
We have a proven program that really works. It has many facets to the program to reach a
multiplicity of personalities. The one program simply does not encompass everyone so we
have criteria for acceptance.
A while back a father of one of our villagers dropped by Kathleen Kelly’s office and
reported that he had worried what was to happen to his other abled child when he died. But,
since she was living at Sharing Meadows, he was no longer worried. Shortly after, that
father, in fact, died. And he died with great peace!
It is a great concern for many parents of other abled persons. The concern needs to be
faced. In general, the longer the other abled person lives at home, the more and more the
parent does for them. It’s easier! But it is not healthy to spoil an adult.
If a parent wants their other abled child to live at Sharing Meadows, now is the time to apply.

THOUGHTS FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
By Kathleen Kelly
Thanksgiving. A simple word that speaks volumes. Most of us look forward to the holiday so we can spend time with loved
ones while enjoying a spectacular meal. Who hasn’t looked forward to freshly carved turkey accompanied by tasty stuffing, sweet
potatoes, an assortment of vegetables and of course, pumpkin pie topped with whipped cream? The only thing better than the
delicious food is having family and friends sharing the meal with us.
While I certainly enjoy Thanksgiving feasts, I need to look beyond the celebration of the holiday and reflecting on the many
blessings I have been given and decide how I can give back to others. A few years ago there was a popular movie called “Pay It Forward.”
The story was simple – when we are the recipient of an act of kindness, we should pay it forward and do a kind act for someone else.
I was reminded of that recently when I received two handwritten and heartfelt thank you notes from two of our villagers.
We had hosted a meeting in the Forcey House at Sharing Meadows that included a meal that was served to our guests and we
had some food left over. There wasn’t enough food for the entire community, just enough for one village, so we told the two
stewards from one of the villages who were on duty they were welcome to bring their villagers to the Forcey House and enjoy the
food. The next morning I received thank you cards from two of the villagers that were straight from their hearts. One of them
wrote, “Thank you for the party you gave us” and the other one scripted, “I do love you. Thank you for the dinner. I would like
to do something nice for you.” Those villagers truly understand not only thanksgiving but the importance of showing kindness to
others. We can learn so much from the villager’s gift of loving unconditionally.
Thanksgiving Day will find me sharing time with loved ones and thanking God for the many blessings He has given me
especially the love and affirmation the villagers share with me each day. May your Thanksgiving be happy and may you always
know the joy of paying it forward!
35TH ANNIVERSARY OF GOOD NEWS
