Things You'd Like To Tell Visitors . . . . and get away with it

There are no visiting hours at our nsg home. So Ms. M's son, who just got out of prison, can show up at 2am, drunk, screaming b/c mom STILL isn't up and walking. I really want to say, "No S____, Sherlock! While you were in prison, mom had a bad car wreck, then a stroke during surgery, and now she is nonresponsive with a trach and a peg tube." But then what do you say after you tell him this (minus the No S___ Sherlock part), and he says, "Well, I'll be back tomorrow nite, and by God, she'd better be up walking, or I'm gonna sue the hell out of you guys." (This said as he is leaning on the wall to avoid falling in the floor) Unfortunately, he is not a drunk who forgets what he said, so the next nite he is back, less drunk, with the same thing.

What in the world do you say to such ignorance?

Hmm... been reading this thread... sounds like any other day in the eastern appalachian mountains. LOL.
However; when something needs said, it usually gets said... from both sides!
Our families bring sleeping bags and blow-up mattresses though, and usually sleep in the lobby and various waiting rooms in every chair and corner. Sometimes it's impossible to even walk through a waiting room.

They either hover like worried mothers or shoot each other in the head.

Society has changed into a very "me" society. If someone doesn't like the rules then they ignore them. When they want something, they want it NOW. People are no longer able to wait for anything. They only care about themselves.

Pepper,

Wow, sure hit that nail right on the head...
