It does not feel like Christmas for this elderly woman. She lives in a nursing home and longs for things to be how they used to be.

She is having a hard time getting into the Christmas spirit. Even with other residents eating meals with her, she feels so alone. There is no family to visit with her. All she has are old pictures of her family and a picture of the house she lived in from so many years ago.

She helped her get dressed in her warm coat, hat, and scarf and the two of them went for a little walk in the snow. They walked on a sidewalk that led to a little house tucked away behind a gate. The house was lit up with Christmas lights.
