    Not that I condone it at all, for I do not (!!) but I can see how you could go crazy taking care of someone with dementia. My grandmother used to hide knives in her underwear drawer, and do things like push my mother down the stairs. My MIL, who…

    Well yes it is a business, how can you treat people when bankrupt? Salaries, supplies, electricity etc all cost money. The electricity for an average 100-bed hospital is 80 or so man a month,water close to that...then the ken has guidelines for how many nurses and nurse's assistants you have…

    They were not re-using needles. I saw a report on the news this morning, one of the things they were using on more than one patient was a glucose-monitoring device. A spring-loaded lancet is used to puncture the finger, as many people hesitate to stick themselves at all let alone…

    I looked at your list. There is not one citation for any of those quotes.They could ALL be made up as far as I know...if there were speeches or articles backing them up I'd listen. The internet lists '20 lies' '67 lies', a whole slew of different 'lie lists'...that is…

    Imagine if a Republican or even a Libertarian candidate had written, as Obama has , that he or she "found a solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mother's race."

    Did you read the entire passage that quote came from, or just the truncated…

    Thank God though, now I can make MIL and all her stubborn friends wear seat belts now. Even in the front seat they would just hold the belt to make it look like they had it on. When front seat belts became law, I was finally able to insist, now…

    For a dysfunctional society, the divorce rate is still pretty low, kids still eat a lot of home cooked meals. I'd like to know what enlightened country Mr. Liddell is from, where none of these problems exist. I guess the rose-colored glasses go on in regards to his birthplace.
