cared for her in the ICU yesterday. She remarked at how beautiful she was.

Don't mean to be unkind - but

...I work in a hospital, and we're advised not to talk (or post) about any patient for any reason (living or not) to our families or anybody else unless it constitutes continuity of care. This is the case whether the patient is somebody famous or just my next-door neighbor. In other words, my lips are sealed. That somebody famous was observed by a caretaker to be beautiful while in the ICU is not information that we need to know. What if she hadn't been beautiful?

BTW, Patty Duke...a great lady, a meaningful life, an advocate. The end of an era. Very sad indeed.

Don't mean to be unkind - p.s.

...if I were your daughter, I would ask that you remove the original post. It wouldn't take much effort to trace the information back to your daughter (ICU, mother in town, mother an MT).

Maybe I'm just extra-cautious?

You're not "extra cautious"--you are "extra professional," as we all should be.

I have always felt it prudent - Old Pro

not to speak about patients, whether they are famous (as they sometimes are in LA) or just ordinary people. I know your daughter did not mean anything wrong, but it is unwise to speak of those patients who are/were in your care.

Just found out... so sad! That sure makes - me feel OLD! :(

I watched it in reruns in the 60s. The set was such a cool old house and they wore the classic 60s clothes and hairdos. I loved it!

That makes me cry - Old Pro

When I was younger (oh, so many moons ago) our family used to watch the Patty Duke show. I really admired her. Another part of my generation is gone.....

The Day The Music DiedJul 09, 2017
A stunning – and stunningly disturbing - event took place this past weekend. But unless you were scouring the news very carefully, chances are you didn't even hear of it. The annual Bravalla Festival, one of the most popular summer music concerts in Sweden, was abruptly canceled. There will be no festival next year. Or ever. Given that tens of thousands of tickets were sold, the problem was not attendance. Nor was there any difficulty booking big-name rap and rock stars. No, ...

By Fouad Ajami Nov. 14, 2013 6:59 p.m. ET The current troubles of the Obama presidency can be read back into its beginnings. Rule by personal charisma has met its proper fate. The spell has been broken, and the magician stands exposed. We need no pollsters to tell us of the loss of faith in Mr. Obama's policies—and, more significantly, in the man himself. Charisma is like that. Crowds come together and they project their needs onto an imagined redeemer. The redeemer leaves ...

My Little Granddoggie, Batman, Died Yesterday And I Nov 03, 2015
My daughter is devastated. Batman was with her for 15 years, a little min-pen that actually looked like he had a mask on, thus his name. I am trying to see about how to prepare his grave a little better. A good friend's husband came over to her house last night, dug the grave and they buried the little doggie. I bought some lime to cover over the top of the grave and some lava rocks to go over that. My question is: I know a grave will settle, do not know how long that will be but should I g ...
