ORIGINAL: DesFIP His daughter has been in control of the money for years. And let's be honest. If she earns a hundred thousand a year for taking care of a confused, elderly man round the clock, day in and day out, she'll more than have earned it. Because she will be wiping him when he gets off the toilet. She'll be washing him. She'll be taking him to doctors and handing out meds and cajoling him to take them. If you folks go check what a nurse's aide costs for a shift, and do the numbers to see what 3 shifts a day, every damn day, adds up to, you'll realize she's underpaid. Hefner is a confused, elderly man? He never struck me as such. I'm guessing, or maybe you have previously stated it and being a confused middle-aged man I forgot, that you are in the medical field. I have always found it interesting how people make blanket assumptions about an elderly person's mental acuity when they do not know the person and base their judgments solely on ageist stereotyping. But it is especially offensive when those who should know better do so. That is right. RML has been wishing for years that Hef would marry him. HA
