Hey Motts, did you find any old medical supplies?

What did the kids do up there? Just sit?

This looks like the wheelchair on Little house on the prairie when Laura shot Nelly down the big hill.
Red Dragon..yea it does...

I love this website.. Its the best ! Keep up the great work!

katey, most of them probably had cathedars, and they probably used bedpans too.

Did they have patient I.D. wrist bands then?
I wander if any patients did any bed swapping to confuse the staff...

well barbara, i have to hand it to you . Your vocabulary is wonderful for an 18 year old. I would have never guessed your age by reading your comments, very nice to see

I think this might be hell.

Yes, there is a very wide audience. I myself am 18, but I happen to know that there are many older people that view your pictures as well. Some have worked at these abandoned places back in their "hey-day." I for one would most certainly buy a book containing these photos. I have looked at bookstores but seen nothing, so this book would be quite a well sought after novelty. Perhaps Lynne should give commentary! ; ) I know in some other posts it was discussed she should publish her info in a book!

ye deffo a chandelier, the air vents are clearly seen on the walls as squares, which i remember seeing in another image where motts point out it was an air vent

Yeah they are found in hospital rooms too, especially surgery recovery rooms. When my grandfather was in the hospital for surgery 2 weeks ago, I sat in one of these (he didn't need it, he was in the bed, I'm not that mean!) and they are pretty comfortable...but not when you are stuck in a place like this with no one by your side.

such strange lighting on the walls, really pretty

Words cannot describe how eerie this is. If I came across this, I would probably be frozen in fear for a few moments, and then I would run like hell.

yikes sam, Sam that would give me a heart attack! I wouldn't want to touch those things, I always think they could have been used...temporarily..I just think that if these places didn't care about their dead, they might be to cheap to actually bury them with the coffin...but pretend they would when they show the coffin for a wake. *shiver*
Reminds me when we bought this cardboard coffin for our fake skeleton Halloween decoration, and being like 10 I decided it would be neat to lay in it...my dad saw me and got pretty mad "get out of there!" - I'm sure that was a horrid site, though I didn't think about it at the moment.

bloody great shot, oh how i wish i could visit the states and look around all theses places
