Gifts, not debts

Time for a shower

A small protected window to feel human.

The complete gift

A trusted adult handles agreed care for the whole window.

Make it welcome

Parent-authorized care only; respect feeding and medical instructions.

A clear offer to adapt

I can help with time for a shower at a time we agree. I’ll handle it start to finish. No hosting, repayment or thank-you note expected. Would that be useful, or should I leave it for another time?

What happens next

Wait for acceptance, agree a time, and handle the whole task. Tell the captain when it is done or your plans change. Do not surprise the family with a visit or expense. A favor is not permission to take or share a child’s photo.

Allow about 20 minutes of helper effort; this is only an estimate. No purchase is needed for the suggested favor.
