Do you need a comb?
With my previous post being so deep and all, I thought I would give you a bit of nursing home humor.  This past Sun. AM, I was helping a very sweet little woman get dressed.  She is the picture of old-fashioned manners and is very proper.  She barely talks above a whisper.  As I was lotioning her back, she looked at me through the mirror and said, "honey, would you like a comb?"  I looked up at my reflection and saw my curls were becoming a bit frizzy but it wasn't too bad considering I had been working for almost 12 hours.   I laughed it off and made a joke about my natural curls having a mind of their own.  A few minutes later, my nurse called me to come back to this lady's room.  "June has something for you," she said with a huge smile.  I look down the hall to see June standing in her door holding a comb out for me!!  She really did want me to comb my hair!!  So, I headed back into her room and wet my hair a bit with some water (I just couldn't bring myself to really use her comb)!!

That sounds like the nursing home stories that I hear from a friend and my brother in law who works at a local nursing home.
That's so sweet! :-)
