Holiday Acts of Aloha
“When my Mom, Zelda Kelson (Lainaholo) was admitted to Pōhai Mālama Care Center in 2017, we were so relieved to have the expertise and support of the Hospice Care team surrounding our family,” recalled Anela Kelson. Anela created the Kūpuna Smiles Project and pulled her large family in Keaukaha together. “By nature, my mom Zelda was such “a giver” and she taught us the importance of that, recalls Anela. Now, along with my sisters, we can teach that spirit of Giving to our keiki too.”
"The nurse visited me at home, taught me about my illness and how I could feel better. Now I can play with my grandson again."
