Fresh meals are great, frozen meals too; all precooked foods will be reheated to minimize any potential pathogen/bacteria exposure. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner meal options are needed (there was no option to include all three on this hosting platform)!! Any and all daylight hours work, unless Deanna states otherwise, and it would be great to see at least 4 days a week covered to get her through these first crucial weeks. If you'd like to make a meal or contribute food but can't make it up to Blaine, please feel free to reach out to Savannah for an assist! If you're personally delivering meals or foods, please contact Deanna or her care team to see if anyone else has contributions to send along with you! It's crucial to minimize any potential exposure while our sweet friend is healing; face masks and hand sanitizer are on site for use, and please wear clean clothing. If you have ANY flu or illness symptoms, please wait until you're all better before visiting!
