<DIV>“The turnover of residents is quite rapid since whoever is quartered in
this room is generally in the later stages of dementia. But that is not what
they die of. None of these lost women can feed herself and to feed them
properly, to spoon in sufficient mince and mashed carrot topped off with rhubarb
and custard to keep them going, demands the personal attention of a
helper, in effect one helper per person. Lacking such one-to-one care, these
helpless creatures slowly and quite respectably starve to death. [. . .] And if
Mam has survived as long as she has it is because, though she can no longer feed
herself, she nevertheless is anxious to eat [. . .].”</DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal>Hello, all,<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p></o:p> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>This is the second piece I’ve read about this woman, Nora
Harris; the first, from a few days ago, mentioned up-front that she was a
Virginia Woolf scholar. This one does not say that; rather, it quotes her
husband as saying she was “enamored” of Woolf and that given the choice between
being kept alive in her current state or committing suicide, she would have put
the rocks in her pockets, etc. In addition to all of this being a very sad state
of affairs, obviously, I’m intrigued that Woolf is being invoked in this manner
and wondered if anyone had any thoughts.<o:p></o:p></P>
