The only sick person in the hospital that I know of that’s slowly dying would be my aunt she’s been suffering from Alzheimer’s disease and she isn’t getting any better and she has been put into a nursing home in North Carolina. She can’t speak and compared to before the aunt I’m used to growing up with has changed a lot. Since she can’t speak and has lost most of her memory we can’t talk to her but if she still was capable of doing that I think she would be like Morrie a little bit she wouldn’t be depressed that she was dying but more of she’s going to a better place and she would of done what she could to spend her last days with her family and just having a good time because she’s a very fun and outgoing type of person and even though she’s slowly dying she’ll be making jokes. I also wish that I had gone to visit her before she got put into the nursing home because I don’t have any recent memories of her before she got put into it and if I did I don’t remember them because it was so long ago that I spent time with her.
The nursing home that my aunt is at, isn’t the best it could be better and my cousin (her daughter) and my mother want to move her to a better one but then that’ll be even further away and they feel better having her in North Carolina since most of her family lives in South Carolina so its not a big commute. Also compared to nursing homes here it looks very poor and isn’t the best the nurses don’t do such a great job to take care of their patients and you can tell when you walk in by the way the patients look and the way the building looks. This shows how the nurses don’t care which sucks since my aunt is there and isn’t getting all the care that she needs. But if she was put into a nursing home that was here she probably would have been taken real good care of and we wouldn’t have to worry as much it probably would of cost more but it would have been worth it because right now they aren’t getting their money’s worth for care she’s been given
Kristin I'm sorry about your aunt and I can compare with my grandma she has a disease very similar to her. My grandmother has dementia which makes her forget things too my parents want her to get the best nursing but they don't want her in a home. My favorite part was how you thought she would act like Morrie because i think that my grandmother would act the same way.
