I am still in a state of shock

over my experiences, over the past 3 months, caring for my poor mother, who walked on, a couple of weeks ago. The hospital told my mother, after a fall, that she did not break her hip, then sent her to rehab to strengthen her, with a broken hip. After one week
in-house rehab, (because insurance would not pay for more), four days at home, she went back to emergency room due to extreme pain. The same nurse that was there for the first emergency room visit, called my Mom a liar, saying that she fell again and did not report it. The orthopedic surgeon apologized for the hospital having misread the first scan. By the time we finally got her into a special surgery hospital for total hip replacement she was so far knocked down in her health. Four weeks with a broken hip, for someone my mothers age, has a mortality rate of 80%. My Mom was living in a supposed great assisted living facility. The ambulance guys treated my Mom like a sack of potatoes. Sorry, I know most EMT's that have compassion. Those guys pulled the straps right across her skin by her ankles. I had to cover her with a blanket and made them re-secure her over the blanket. We have a giant problem with elder care ... my eyes are now open.

The wall is trump's Golden Calf

Let's hear from all the RW religious fundies ... are they planning to worship before it? Seems as if they will. Christian, until hate.

mr. gold toilet and why NY'ers hate him

Alan Garten, general counsel for The Trump Organization, declined to tell The Associated Press how much money Trump has earned from his Central Park trademarks, only saying that "Mr. Trump, over the course of his career, has owned and developed some of the most iconic buildings in the city, many of which... sit only footsteps away from Central Park." The park is operated by both New York City and the private Central Park Conservancy, which can sell items like umbrellas with the official Central Park logo. Neither the city nor the Conservancy can revoke Trump's trademarks, though the city has tried and failed to derail several trademark applications but found no way to, NY1 reports.

Has anyone asked Clarence Thomas his opinion

on the Kavanaugh case?

GOP, the greatest defenders

of the RAPE culture.

No, no, no and NO

The Supreme Court already has a sexual harasser/predator serving (Clarence Thomas). NO, to another one. Sexual predators will be over represented on the court if they confirm Brett Michael Kavanaugh.
