Sin falta a la hora del almuerzo, Bonnie est\u00e1 en el vest\u00edbulo de su complejo de apartamentos de Minneapolis esperando, dando la bienvenida a los voluntarios que sirven las comidas del d\u00eda para ella y sus vecinos. R\u00e1pidamente con una sonrisa cuando los voluntarios ingresen, ella ofrecer\u00e1 sus pensamientos sobre el mejor enfoque para entregar las comidas del d\u00eda a sus vecinos en el edificio alto.<\/p>\n

En los d\u00edas en que los voluntarios tienen una bolsa extra utilizada para entregar comidas congeladas por una semana a otro residente, Bonnie ofrecer\u00e1 guardar la bolsa en su apartamento. De esa manera, no tienen que cargar la bolsa vac\u00eda mientras la entregan a los residentes en los pisos superiores.<\/p>\n

"Les debemos un agradecimiento especial a los voluntarios por estar dispuestos a servir", dice acerca de por qu\u00e9 le gusta recibirlos todos los d\u00edas.<\/p>\n

Bonnie dice que las comidas que recibe cada d\u00eda son esenciales para ayudarla a comer de manera saludable y vivir de manera independiente. Tambi\u00e9n dice que el sentimiento de comunidad que obtiene al formar parte del programa proporciona un beneficio insustituible.<\/p>\n

Por qu\u00e9 es importante luchar contra la soledad, adem\u00e1s del hambre<\/h4>\n

Bonnie no est\u00e1 sola en lo que siente por el programa. Un estudio nacional reciente del programa Meals on Wheels de la Universidad de Brown descubri\u00f3 que El 77 por ciento de las personas que recibieron diariamente comidas calientes de Meals on Wheels dijeron que les ayud\u00f3 a sentirse menos solos. <\/em><\/p>\n

Ese estudio tambi\u00e9n encontr\u00f3 que los receptores que viv\u00edan solos ten\u00edan m\u00e1s probabilidades que otros de informar que la entrega diaria de comidas les ayudaba a sentirse m\u00e1s conectados con la comunidad. A medida que envejecemos, es m\u00e1s probable que vivamos solos. En los Estados Unidos, un tercio de los adultos mayores de 65 a\u00f1os ahora viven solos, al igual que la mitad de los mayores de 85 a\u00f1os.<\/p>\n

A nivel local, casi tres de cada cuatro receptores que atendemos (74 por ciento) viven solos. Dado que muchas de las personas a las que servimos enfrentan desaf\u00edos de movilidad que pueden evitar que sean tan activos como les gustar\u00eda, los voluntarios que entregan las comidas pueden proporcionar una salida social muy apreciada.<\/p>\n

La creciente investigaci\u00f3n sugiere que la soledad no solo afecta nuestro estado mental, sino tambi\u00e9n nuestra salud f\u00edsica. El aislamiento social puede estar relacionado con una amplia gama de problemas de salud, desde un mayor riesgo de enfermedad card\u00edaca hasta un deterioro cognitivo acelerado, se\u00f1al\u00f3 Dr. Dhruv Khullar en un comentario de 2016 para el New York Times.<\/a><\/p>\n

"Cuando las personas sufren, trato de ayudarlas lo mejor que puedo".<\/h4>\n

Cuando Bonnie est\u00e1 conversando con sus vecinos en su complejo de apartamentos, no se averg\u00fcenza de c\u00f3mo Meals on Wheels la ha ayudado. Despu\u00e9s de pasar su carrera en enfermer\u00eda, dijo que est\u00e1 en su naturaleza tratar de ayudar a las personas, incluso cuando pedir ayuda puede ser dif\u00edcil.<\/p>\n

"Trabajo mucho como voluntaria en el edificio aqu\u00ed y me encuentro con personas que se beneficiar\u00edan", dice ella. "Cuando las personas sufren, trato de ayudarlas lo mejor que puedo".<\/p>\n

Para Bonnie y alrededor de una docena de sus vecinos, los voluntarios de Meals on Wheels brindan no solo el alimento de una comida caliente, sino tambi\u00e9n una conversaci\u00f3n amistosa. La investigaci\u00f3n sobre las consecuencias para la salud de la soledad sugiere que el aspecto social de la entrega de comidas podr\u00eda desempe\u00f1ar un papel tan importante como la comida.<\/p>\n
