I believe Mr. Shaws' bed is behind one of those curtains, and it's to be elevated at all times. At least thats what the cardboard sign said when I was last in there in 2000.
The fresh air did them no harm. It was the time in the sun that did them the most good. Sunlight helps with vitamin D production ,and stimulates bone repair. TB attacks the bones as well in some cases. Plus the fresh air encourage the people to breathe deeply and expand thier lungs.
2 friends and i took a trip down there this afternoon. i agree its creepy and i was on the look out for police. we walked to the right building that foms a horseshoe with the fire damaged part on the left. the roof is falling apart and unfortunatly vandals frequent the site. swastikas plague the area and glass from the windows. We spent roughly 15 minutes there and then got the hell out. no police were seen on the trip. There is another site down the road a ways from there. its haunted and theres a story to it. Its call camp Kiwanee and we visited it as well. It should be checked out in the day as it is cool. its an old summer camp. The story, and a true on at that, is that on her wedding day, a woman was told by her butler that he loved her, she didnt love him and he hung her from a hook in her wedding dress in the top room. when she didnt show up when the wedding song started, the people there found him upstairs, he jump out the window, rolled down the hill and into the lake, they never found his body. the room where she was killed is there, and boarded up. i dont know anymore specifics from the story. ill give infro where it is if your interested. we walked around with out any problems from people there and it was pretty much abandoned. and i found a CB radio in an old destroyed town of hanson truck. theres a firestation there as well. check it out
Part of it burned down (the whole right half and it will be demolished soon There are still wheelchairs and such out front but if any choose to go just remember to stay no longer than a couple of minutes, ever since the fire the cops watch the place like hawks and they get there within five minutes and arrest who ever is there and confiscate all eqipment
