Well, the blog has not been a very uplifting experience the last couple of days! I have no clue to what the solution to any of this is. I do know that the only choice we have is LNC (or another similar one) or living with one of us. I don't see the latter happening and truthfully it wouldn't work anyway. I know where they are in their life is not a good place, but we're all going to be there one day if we live that long. I agree that there should be more interaction between the patients, but then again I don't work there and I have no idea how you arrange all of that ideally. I know that there would be many patients who would not want to participate and many who would sporadically want to participate and some who would always want to. I can see how that would create difficult situations. At the same time, there's got to be a happy medium in there somewhere. We definitely need to consult with someone there to see what the problem with Mother and Daddy is. Jeanie and I were not impressed with the head nurse in charge on their new wing. She did not seem very approachable or caring like the nurses on the other wing had. On an even stranger note, we had about 5 inches of snow last night here in Aubrey, Texas! Yeah, it is crazy and it is COLD! Welcome to Spring Break!! Okay, we're heading home in the morning . Go U.K.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! love you, pat
