Mom's New Nursing Home
One evening, a family brings their frail, elderly
mother to a nursing home and leaves her, hoping she will be well cared
for. The next morning, the
nurses bathe her, feed her a tasty breakfast and set her in a chair at a
window overlooking a lovely flower garden.
She seems okay, but after a while she slowly starts to fall over
sideways in her chair. Two
attentive nurses immediately rush up to catch her and straighten her up.
Again she seems okay, but after a while she starts to tilt to the
other side. The nurses rush
back and once more bring her back upright.
This goes on all morning...
Later the family arrives to see how the old woman is
adjusting to her new home. “So Ma, how is it here?
Are they treating you all right?” they ask.
