Very interesting but I agree with BKW about blocking out the name of the patient and Dr since I work in Medical records in a Dr's office personally I don't care how many years ago it was I wouldn't want anyone I know or myself to be seen by all. Yes , pt confidentiality is very important!!! Its no one's business really. Its a very sad read. Just think if they did that to alot of patients back in the day. All those medications and EST wow. How very very sad. Interesting but very sad. I hope that woman did find peace sometime. I hope she got to leave that place but one never knows does one. Esp in those days.
THis reminds me of the chairs in the auditorium in my daughter's school! She is in 6th Grade and my husband (her father) used to go to that school way back in the 1970's! I think it was a high school back then (9th - 12th Grade) and when we went there for Orientation at the beginning of this school year (2010) he said it brought back a LOT of memories! The school looks a lot like he remembered it. Wow.
Greast photo as always Motts. Even when it was in use though I don't think I'd want to take a bath in that room. It looks awful really. Also the green color dosen't help much either. Ugh. At least to me anyway. Or the shower either.
Holy Hannah...I can''t add any more than the comments already...but SHOOT that made my heart skip a beat or three. Glad my husband is in the next room. I almost screamed and he looked at me like "what?"
Good grief--we have 2 girls and a TON of baby-dolls. Nightmares anyone??
Geeez! This looks like something right out of "M*A*S*H" (one of my fave shows and I cried when it ended)...this is kind of spooky. I can almost hear the loudspeaker:
"Attention all personnel--attention...incoming wounded..."
Too much TV for me perhaps? What do you think Motts?
This is kind of different from the more "depressing" pictures on this site (I mean NO disrespect Motts!!)..this almost smacks of good times, smiles, laughs, and fun. I get a kick out of kids having a great time...disabled or not.
I love this picture and it is nice to see something "happy" for once...though they DO look rather lonely down here. They belong with children. :)
Yeah, I second that about TootUncommons reply....perfect as usual!! It is sad to she a beautiful or what was a nice instrument gone but when things are left to just waste thats what happens to them...I guess it goes to show everything has an 'end' sad but so true just like the buildings too.
Looks like someone took a wooden chair that you would find in a garden somewhere (think garden where the occupants sip tea and watch croquet being played) and stuck wheels on it.
I thought of that quote from Annie too...I LOVE that movie! I remember when that movie first came OUT...
Good grief I feel old...these antiquated chairs aren't helping lol!
Those tunnels went ,or were connected to all the bldgs,spent many days in them,Older employees would bring us new ones down there to get us lost.. Miss those old guys..Alot of good people worked there..
This was the roller skateing rink, last used mid 60's. was still in good shape when I started working there in the early 70's ,but never saw it used...
