Any other old timers out there?

Thank you for the explanation! I know for sure that the only sane ones in some nursing homes are the ones acting crazy. For example, my father when hospitalized for a bleeding ulcer went "psycho" for the first time in over 70 years. Go figure! He got what he wanted, released (after being give 4 different anti-psychotics including Zyprexa)! He is now happy to be home.

Clinical trials in the elderly? No, we need better facilities and care.

I am sorry about what your father went through. You are correct about needing better care. That statement can be said for all of medicine. However, I wish there were more studies done to calm the elderly when they become agitated, angry, violent, explosive and manic like. Regardless of how wonderful the care can be, they need help. It is scary to hear the screams of a dementia patient in the middle of the night, panicking over their safety because they left or seeing the person who once hugged you when you were hurt punching you for no reason.

Maybe if you hadn't spent your entire adult life buying and paying for false and fleeting luxuries, and would have instead embraced our LORD JESUS and been there for them, maybe then, there would be no kicking and screaming. Just sayin'

I truly feel sorry for your ignorance. Please educate yourself on mental illness before using The Lord as the forefront of your delusional ideas.
