About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver arrived with an unusual package. As he walked through the hallways, nurses and patients began noticing something strange—every time he passed by, their symptoms seemed to temporarily ease. Finally, someone followed him into the hallway and asked what was in the box. The delivery driver grinned sheepishly and replied, 'Just some special cookies from my neighbor.' Everyone laughed, realizing that maybe kindness—and cookies—really can heal.

2. One afternoon, a neighbor walking her dog noticed something odd coming from the parking lot. A faint humming sound, like an old record player left on, echoed softly in the air. Curious, she approached and saw an elderly delivery driver fiddling with his package tray. Turns out, he had accidentally turned on his electric cart's low battery warning—a hum that sounded eerily like alien communication. The neighbor laughed so hard she almost missed her own dog barking back at him.

3. At dawn one foggy morning, a nurse on her way to work noticed an old man standing outside the center's gates. He kept repeating, 'I feel like I've been here before,' but no one seemed to recognize him. Curious, she approached and asked if he needed help. Turns out, he was just a local jogger who often ran through these streets early in the morning. ‘Must be the smell of those delicious donuts from the bakery down the road,’ he joked, pointing towards a nearby shop. The nurse smiled and waved goodbye, thinking maybe he’d really been there before—just not for cancer treatment.

4. At lunchtime, a regular patient asked the receptionist, ‘Do you ever wonder why there’s always such a strong smell of fish around here?’ The receptionist smiled and replied, ‘Oh, that’s just Mr. Lee from down the street—he brings us fresh sushi every week.’ The patient laughed, shaking his head in disbelief, while another voice chimed in from behind them, ‘Hey, I thought it was those special cookies Mrs. Kim bakes!’ Turning around, they saw a friendly delivery driver waving with a box labeled ‘homemade treats’.
