That is truly the hardest thing about growing old… the people who know you well start dying and then there’s no one. My plan for the future – find as many young friends as possible, and pay attention to the old ones whenever I can.

As one who worked in such facilities, this is a sad fact that sickens those who care for them.

Another form of elder abuse. I once worked in a ward for the elderly and saw that happen. There was a cat that used to hang around so one day I put it on the lap of an elderly lady who hadn’t spoken in years. She then started speaking again. So the cat kept coming back to her and it lifted her up so much. 🙂
