Lucy's For Lynn Company Lucys For Lynn provides life-size dolls to advanced Alzheimer's sufferers, a powerful connection to remembered love and comfort.

Christmas 2016 Velma Thomas (Lynn’s mother-in-law) had a great idea to give Lynn a lifelike baby-doll for Christmas. She had heard about the advantages of therapy dolls in Alzheimer’s patients and with the upcoming birth of her first grand baby thought it would be good practice. I’ll have to admit, I was skeptical at first. By this time, her disease had progressed to the point where Lynn wasn’t able to speak and had lost the ability to eat or walk without a great deal of assistance. She spent a lot of time in her chairs. Lynn’s response to the doll was instant and amazing. We named her Lucy as that was the name Mark, Lynn’s husband, had given their unborn granddaughter so the child would have a name to pray for. She held onto Lucy, patted her bottom and did not let go of her. Her motherly instincts were alive and well. She looked proud to be holding the baby and would sit for hours holding, patting and loving on Lucy. Lucy was comforting to Lynn and she seemed to give her a sense of pride and purpose. Grandma was right, by the time her first granddaughter was born, Lynn was ready to hold her just as she had held Lucy for months before and would continue for years after. December 2018 a family friend and the best Santa Clause you’ve ever met, Roger Graham, had the idea to visit nursing homes as Santa. He had done it before, and spoke of the joy it brought the residents. Santa was recognized by all, even with the later stages of Alzheimer’s. We thought it would be nice to give something to the residents, and thus the start of Lucy’s for Lynn. Lynn died at the age of 67 after battling Alzheimer’s for 11 years, but her memory lives on.

Most of us want to believe that if we trust our lives to God, He will give us a happy, healthy, comfortable, and trouble-free life.

The truth is, Jesus doesn't invite us to a life of comfort and ease, but to a life of sacrifice and surrender.

"Then Jesus told his disciples, 'If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.'" Matthew 16:24-25

World Alzheimer’s Day means a lot to us because of our family connection to the disease.

Lucys for Lynn was started to bring comfort to people affected by Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia by providing dolls to love and care for while adding responsibility and structure back into their lives.
