I live in Legacy Healthcare’s rest home, and I really enjoy their “happy hours,” especially when the music band plays. These times are so special with fun, friends, and happiness. The things we do and how we talk with each other, along with the music, make me feel happy and part of a lively group. Seeing other people here having a good time and making memories warms my heart.
