Hi Erin

I feel comforted too, by your post. That is really interesting, to hear that from someone who has witnessed life in a resthome first hand. I agree that friends are the best family. I for one don't want family visiting me who feel obligated to do so, and don't particularly want to. Frankly, I'd rather they stayed away.

Thanks for your words, Erin.
