Meeting room at the library or therapy are not only for the exchange of books, but also it provide an opportunity to establish contact with the employee and roommate, the possibility of an agreement. Sometimes, the needlework are kept in the closet and on the table there is a cup of coffee, cookies and that is how parties start. People are bringing their memories, they joke, sing, make plans for the future. Sometimes they open up and talk about theirs anxieties. Not looking for advice. They just need someone to listen. The main problem is the lack of contact with their families.
