It may not have caught fire yet, but there's still plenty of time. Everything's just sitting around again rotting away.

Yes, I can believe that, Tara. Does anyone care anymore? Would love to just spend a little time on all that paperwork; just for curiosity.

That is really disgusting! Don't they get rid of all that waste before they close places like this?

Can you believe that a hospital would walk off and leave your whole medical history for the world to see?!

I find the word "gurney" to be a disturbing sounding word. Only something really awful could be called a "gurney."

My grandfather is in a veteran's center, and, yeah, he gets "restrained". Voluntarilly, I might add. He was shot in the leg in WWII, fell and broke his hip about 10 years ago, and has had multiple strokes since then. He's fairly alert and lively, but he used to fall out of his wheelchair quite a bit, and by this time he's too uncoordinated to stand up. The one time he sneezed, fell out of the chair, and ended up on the floor for almost a half hour or so before someone found him. After that, he absolutely demanded they belt him to that chair. So, yeah, it kind of makes me laugh every time someone automatically assumes that restraints are always bad. My grandfather had to fight to get them to belt him in. Same for when he's in bed. He tends to sleepwalk, which is trouble considering he can't walk or balance anymore. One night he had a dream he was going for a walk to pay his taxes. Ended up getting out of bed in his sleep and taking a nasty fall. They had to amputate two of his toes because of it. Ever since then, they build this whole complicated fortress of blankets and pillows around him in bed so he can't accidentally roll himself out of it. He wants them to strap him to the bed, but apparently they are afraid to go that far due to legal issues. So, I mean, yeah... If I was staying briefly in a sleep clinic for something like sleep-walking, I'd probably demand they put me in some light restraints at night. Hey, it's better than sedating me every night, and I certainly wouldn't want to go on a midnight sleep-hike out to some busy road or something.
