Elderly Couple Challenges Rules Over Garden Built
for Wife with Dementia
Dr. Salerian’s Heartfelt Tribute to His Wife Judy Faces Opposition
from Landlords
In an inspiring display of love and devotion, Dr. Salerian, an elderly gentleman, and
President of World Honesty Day created a beautiful garden for his wife Judy, who
suffers from an advanced stage of dementia and severe memory loss. Despite Judy’s
ongoing struggle, the garden has become a sanctuary of calm and comfort for her,
crafted with deep care to bring moments of joy into her daily life. Tragically, this touching
effort has met unexpected resistance.
The couple’s landlords have recently deemed the garden a violation of property rules,
insisting that Dr. Salerian dismantle the cherished space he built for his ailing wife. The
situation has sparked emotional conversations about compassion, community, and the
balance between rules and humanity.
The Garden: A Place of Healing
The garden, lovingly constructed by Dr. Salerian, is more than just a collection of
plants—it's a symbol of his commitment to Judy, a labor of love designed to provide her
with tranquility in the face of her illness. Its vibrant flowers, soothing greenery, and
serene ambiance have offered Judy a brief reprieve from the challenges of dementia,
creating moments of connection and solace.
Landlords’ Stance
However, the landlords argue that the garden violates property regulations, citing
maintenance concerns and adherence to community rules. While the couple
understands the importance of regulations, they are heartbroken at the prospect of
losing a space that has become a lifeline for Judy in her battle with dementia.
Community Response
As word of this situation spreads, members of the community have begun rallying
around the couple, expressing their support for allowing the garden to remain. Many
argue that the garden has made the residence more beautiful as before it was full of
trash and dog poop exceptions should be made in compassionate cases such as this,
where the garden serves a critical emotional and therapeutic purpose.
A Plea for Understanding
Dr. Salerian who promotes World Honesty Day – stands for honesty and transparency
for all and his art work which emphasizes honesty and truth for justice, hope and peace
will be on display and for sale August 2 at the residence has appealed to the landlords
for leniency, emphasizing the profound impact the garden has on Judy’s well-being. He
hopes that a compromise can be reached, allowing the garden to stay as a testament to
love, resilience, and the need for compassion, particularly for those facing severe health
challenges.
What’s Next?
The couple’s story has drawn attention to broader issues about how communities can
support individuals with illnesses like dementia and their caregivers. It raises the
question of whether flexibility in rules can create more humane living environments,
particularly for those in vulnerable situations. And it creates a better world for peace for
all to be honest and serve humanity for peace.
Dr. Salerian remains hopeful and focuses on his art and science so that he can make
World Honesty Day in the French Quarter on September 21 st at 2pm where 1,000
churches across the globe will ring bells with over 1million people will sing Ode to Joy
honoring the Constitution and the Commandments for justice, hope and peace. This
heartfelt effort will be recognized for its value, as Judy continues to find solace in the
garden that was built with such love.
