SHEILA HAYDEN is right. It's the quality of life that counts. And unlike many relatives, she is both compassionate and honest. A "sans everything" old age can be torture for relatives - although most are unwilling to admit it. I'm 76 and marginally "sans". I'm looking for a nursing home which allows unlimited access to Greene King draught Abbot, "Veterano" brandy and T-bone steaks. Any offers?
