It's the first time she's had "real" food in over three months. While Lauren did not place in any category and placed last in the "figure novice short" category, she gained the physical and mental discipline, and strength she strived for, as well as the respect and admiration of her friends and family. While the efforts of the last three months didn't not win her a trophy, Lauren lives a healthier lifestyle. She has not decided if she wants to continue to compete. http://www.connorgleason.com/a-second-home-for-kim daily 0.75 2015-04-09 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/541f6d93e4b0debb3319b776/5526b3e8e4b0d0dbb070e222/5526b7d0e4b015f7a307ab8c/1428600977275/001.jpg A Second Home for Kim Rollin Lane, 88, sits with Kim, left, his 57-year old daughter with Down Syndrome, and Kris Zamora, right, in his Leominster home.

They told him she’d be a “vegetable,” and there would be “a lot of problems.” “In my mind- no way. My wife, thank God, felt the same way,” Rollin remembers. “She's coming home, she's going to be part of our family. End of story.” https://static1.squarespace.com/static/541f6d93e4b0debb3319b776/5526b3e8e4b0d0dbb070e222/5526b7d1e4b0aa7f8c7f34b7/1428601059610/003.jpg A Second Home for Kim Leaving her family in Ohio, Rollin's other daughter, Kris Zamora, visits every few months to assist Kim and Rollin for weeks at a time. Taking the role Rollin once played, she cares for them both by cleaning, cooking, doing the laundry, and running errands. However, her efforts to aid Kim are often not received with gratitude. “It's frustrating to not have that returned,” Kris says about having a sister who is non-verbal. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/541f6d93e4b0debb3319b776/5526b3e8e4b0d0dbb070e222/5526b7d1e4b015f7a307ab8f/1428601159384/004.jpg A Second Home for Kim “Dad and she have a very intertwined, close relationship. Very co-dependent.” Kris says. When Rollin is present, Kim doesn't want anyone else to do anything for her and relies on her father for her needs. “I don't have any other siblings, so I don't know what it like to have a "normal" sibling.” https://static1.squarespace.com/static/541f6d93e4b0debb3319b776/5526b3e8e4b0d0dbb070e222/5526b7d1e4b0aa7f8c7f34b9/1428601185461/005.jpg A Second Home for Kim Kim has lived with Rollin all her life, and despite his declining health, Rollin has been the primary caregiver for his daughter. As a person with special needs, Kim needed constant one-on-one supervision and after the passing of his wife 15 years ago, Rollin has bathed her, dressed her, and fed her as a parent would a child. While many his age are well into their retirement and many relocate to senior living facilities, Rollin took on the responsibility for caring for his daughter. However, over the years, Rollin’s health and ability to care for Kim declined, which made finding help for her a necessity. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/541f6d93e4b0debb3319b776/5526b3e8e4b0d0dbb070e222/5526b7d2e4b015f7a307ab91/1428601214914/006.jpg A Second Home for Kim Rollin is aware of the reverse-dynamic. “One of the things I feel bad about is that Kris has extended herself in every physically, and mentally possible way to love her sister. But her sister doesn't respond. It's not Kim’s fault and Kris understands that. She's bent over backwards trying to help and do what's best for her.” https://static1.squarespace.com/static/541f6d93e4b0debb3319b776/5526b3e8e4b0d0dbb070e222/5526b7d2e4b0aa7f8c7f34cf/1428601236630/007.jpg A Second Home for Kim Recently, Kim began to develop problems with her memory and thinking, and she became increasingly difficult to interact with-all possible signs of Alzheimer’s Disease, a type of dementia. Her symptoms developed slowly and worsened over time, although her Down’s made it difficult to diagnose at first. “It was hard to see because we didn't know what was wrong,” Kris said. “ We couldn't understand what was going on.” https://static1.squarespace.com/static/541f6d93e4b0debb3319b776/5526b3e8e4b0d0dbb070e222/5526b7d2e4b015f7a307ab93/1428601261919/008.jpg A Second Home for Kim Rollin hands Kris a bottle of baby powder through the door as Kris assists Kim with cleaning after a failed attempt at using the bathroom. The choice was clearer when it became an issue of Rollin’s health and Kim’s safety. “She wasn't giving him any peace,” Kris recalls. “As much help as we gave, she was wandering. We had to make sure the doors were locked.” Rollin’s use of a wheelchair and older age made daily tasks like bathing, dressing, and feeding Kim difficult for all involved. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/541f6d93e4b0debb3319b776/5526b3e8e4b0d0dbb070e222/5526b7d2e4b0aa7f8c7f34d1/1428601288799/009.jpg A Second Home for Kim When Kim would start having sporadic crying fits, it was especially tough for Rollin. “ She would be hysterical, very afraid and scared.” She stopped taking interest in the activities she enjoyed, like watching her favorite TV programs, going bowling, and participating in workshops at the ARC in Fitchburg, a community-based organization that helped those with intellectual and developmental challenges through job placement and training. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/541f6d93e4b0debb3319b776/5526b3e8e4b0d0dbb070e222/5526b7d3e4b015f7a307ab96/1428601310350/010.jpg A Second Home for Kim Kris and Rollin agreed that they couldn't do it anymore. Kris was no longer able to care for her father and sister together by herself, and Rollin was no longer able to care for Kim by himself. They needed a solution where Kim could be more independent and have the support she requires. They needed to find Kim a second home. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/541f6d93e4b0debb3319b776/5526b3e8e4b0d0dbb070e222/5526b7d3e4b015f7a307ab98/1428601329062/011.jpg A Second Home for Kim "I promised my wife on her death bed that I wouldn't put Kim in an institution.” Rollin says with regret. “But I can't keep that promise and I shouldn't have ever made it. I feel I've done the best I can. I'm doing what I'm doing, not for my benefit, but her benefit.” https://static1.squarespace.com/static/541f6d93e4b0debb3319b776/5526b3e8e4b0d0dbb070e222/5526b7d3e4b0aa7f8c7f34d3/1428601352739/012.jpg A Second Home for Kim Kris assists Rollin out of his Leominster house as they visit a housing solution for Kim. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/541f6d93e4b0debb3319b776/5526b3e8e4b0d0dbb070e222/5526b7d3e4b015f7a307ab9b/1428601378503/013.jpg A Second Home for Kim With pressure from the Department of Developmental Services (DDS), friends, and family, Kris remembers the struggle leading up to the decision to find a second home for Kim. She and Rollin went back and forth many times, changed their minds, tried different ways to handle things. “We had to be sure we couldn't do it anymore and there was nothing more we could do. It didn't matter who told us, or what anyone else said. We had to be sure up until that point.” https://static1.squarespace.com/static/541f6d93e4b0debb3319b776/5526b3e8e4b0d0dbb070e222/5526b7d3e4b0aa7f8c7f34d6/1428601404169/014.jpg A Second Home for Kim Kris acknowledges her father’s good intentions and his promise to protect and watch over her. The idea of Kim growing up and leaving, as many family members do, was never part of the equation. Rollin’s biggest fear is the same as any parent-“What happens to my daughter or son when I'm gone?” https://static1.squarespace.com/static/541f6d93e4b0debb3319b776/5526b3e8e4b0d0dbb070e222/5526b7d3e4b003f395c0e74c/1428601432185/015.jpg A Second Home for Kim From left, Kim's DDS caseworker Cheryl Lebeuf, Kris, Rollin, and Seven Hills Residence Director Freda Archeval, meet with Venture Community Services Day Program Director Elizabeth Bond, as they tour the Venture Community Services facility in Fitchburg.
