An 80-something woman feeling the strains of aging raved about how her sister has her own condo and gets waited on hand and foot at her assisted living center in Southern California.
I pointed out it probably costs $5,000 - $7,000 for this luxury and that we could hire two men in G strings to help her for less than that.
Then I fed my dad a piece of cake the way you give a sugar cube to a horse. "I bet they don't do that at the assisted living centers!" I exclaimed. Then again, there are a lot of things they would do I wouldn't. But still, it's nice to be able to have such frank and humorous discussions about a non-humorous topic.
