the thing that upsets me about this one is that every child needs love... being held stories read to them ... i dont get a sence these kids had ANYTHING like that i feel as if they wher a burden to the staff.. as if something to be tollerated for their pay ... i dont feel an ounce of love or good intention comeing from this place what so ever ... being empathic i just feel so very sad with this one... parts of me wish i could turn back time and work there so i could have offerd some sort of peace to these poor poor kids!!! god rest their souls.... any comments email to justicedreams24@aol.com
maybe it's the empathic in me but when i see this room i see a small child sitting in the corner holding it's head screaming non stop ... just screaming for god only knows what.... maybe it's just me ... any comment's on what you all get from this ? email to justicedreams24@aol.com
i dont understand the use for the hall way windows eigther i mean ... if it was for the staff so they could observe the children as they bathed... then why didnt they just sit in with them ?? i think it was just i dont know ... it just seems so creepy .. wouldnt that encourage sexual thing's among patients? i mean am i wrong for thinking patients seeing patience nude would encourage inapropriate behavior? any comments or ideas email me at justicedreams24@aol.com
i dont think what people are called makes much of a difference of how they are treated meaning if there is someone sick working in these places and they want to abuse or molest some patient they will do so reguardless of what you call them because to them few .. people the people who live in these places are just thing's to use and abuse ... though your stories do interrest me ... if you have any more share with us ... i worked in a elderly home... with patients we called them residence... bless you ! email with any stories or comment's at justicedreams24@aol.com
im sorry but it's hard for me to imagine you felt alone in this building meaning... even me looking at these pictures i imagine myself walking down the hall and constantly look behind me as i feel the eyes of children watching me .. any comment's ? email me at justicedreams24@aol.com
based on the history as it is told here this is just the type of thing i feel went on in all the hospitals... i mean think of it ... you mean to tell me every nurse that worked in any of these hospitals at the time treated their patients well? i hardly think so even to this day abuse isnt a far fetched thing to occure... and the very fact that this happend to children.. is pure evil.. i wouldnt doubt the souls of these poor babys still can be heard screaming for help in the middle of the night by people .... any input or comments email me at justicedreams24@aol.com
perhaps this was a room used for punishment for those who acted up from time to time? or perhaps a room for extras like medications the nurses may have used ? email me to let me know your opinions on my idea? at justicedreams24@aol.com
Could also be that they taught the kids ~how~ to use the bathtub. During the bathing lessons, they played records in the background "This is the way we use the soap, use the soap, use the soap. This is the way we use the soap, so early in the morning..."
Peat Moss,
It was maybe 6 years ago. Even then, it wasn't in the best condition, but the vandals and vagrants really hadn't started destroying it yet. The security by way of National Guard has been there since before my dad and I drove there.
this make me wonder how many activities did these people have to do with others? useing restrooms and showers and god only knows what elt's the lack of privacy would drive me crazy !!! shouldnt there be some sort of effort to preserve their modesty and respect them as people deserveing privacy from other patients i can understand if a nurse had to be with them at all times but did your bunk mate have to watch you take a dump too ? weird isnt it ? email comments to justicedreams24@aol.com
if it was for a child it worries me that a child would be put in the same hospital as adults... and perhaps maybe it could also be for an underdeveloped mently ill patient someone small for their age and weak ?email comments to justicedreams24@aol.com
it may look pretty to us but imagine this being the only view you have to the outside world knowing you might never be in it again ? i just get so sad looking at these pictures i just imagine some poor confused lonely woman sadly gazeing out the window at a life she will never have a chance to live... so very sad
