[QUOTE="NikatKimber, post: 1341227, member: 423"] I'm not saying that "sucks to be old" but that "sh!t happens" I think it's nuts how sue-happy some people are. My great grandfather (whose wife I mentioned earlier) much MUCH preferred spending a day at my parents house (with 6 kids running around) than being in the "safe" nursing home (which everytime we went to visit him, he talked about "breaking out of this joint"). But I can't imagine his other kids sueing us if my younger brother had tripped him on accident, because mom didn't have him on a leash. He was 90+ at this time. And yes, all of his descendants loved him. He was an awesome man. Seriously though? "Untimely demise?" I mean, she could have tripped stepping off the curb crossing the next street and suffered the same thing. Not to be morbid, but at 87, life is, well... fragile. [/QUOTE]
