[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 322273, member: 84"] Tm I also thought, that may be some our own difficult child's one day. Although I've taken great pains with my girls that I hope it will never happen to Travis. Abbey from the time I was very little Mom used to take me to work with her at the nursing home whenever I wasn't with my grandma or she didn't have a sitter. Imagine that hitting you at about age 5-6. I used to get so sad thinking of all those people, most who seemed completely forgotten by family. Mom used to dress up all 5 of us kids and take us to every holiday party. We never missed one. And the residents always got such a huge kick out of it. I'm bathing Molly and Betsy next week and both are going to visit mother in law. :) As well as any other resident who would like to visit them. I'm so glad nursing homes allow this now. We have a home like you describe across the alley. The family who runs it and who do the work are in their 3rd generation. Wonderful people. A good thing as I rarely see family of the residents there come to visit. Sad. I saw them carrying in Thanksgiving dinner today. :) Give your mother in law a hug from me. I'm glad you had such a special Thanksgiving. ((hugs)) [/QUOTE]
