Who does not love Ms Panini? She is a hit at the first encounter…Who would think? An elderly gal, skin and bone, dehydrated… She caught the heart of everybody around and gets tender loving care from the medical folks. We, volunteers are allowed to visit and we do not miss an opportunity to take Ms Panini for a short and slow walk in the yard. She is timid and gentle and we are handling her like she is made of the most fragile material…She is such a brave and smart little soldier, trying her best to stay afloat and dealing with whatever we are proposing to her like the great trooper she is. Ms Panini deserves the best, a welcoming home and a loving master. She might be twelve years of age but might enjoy a few more in caring and savvy hands…Ms Panini is at the Manhattan Care Center, wishing upon a star….
