Babies need changing on a very regular basis—even though babies change at an astonishing rate all on their own.
How have you supported someone in making their own change?
One thought on “Change the Baby”
A close friend of mine, in both personal and professional aspects, was a heavy smoker. At that time, she was able to smoke in the work place. A challenge was put forth: do not smoke at work for 30 days! I told her that if she could accomplish this, I would PAY her a dollar a day. She received her $30 (although, I’m sure smoking outside). Eventually the law changed to NO SMOKING at work. Years later, I was with her when she had a massive congestive episode requiring that I take her to Emergicare; of course the Doctor said STOP. She did. Although she has minor symptoms, I believe that her health has improved considerably and I count it as a major achievement for her, and I was glad that I had been a partial part of the solution..
