Ozliar is objecting to >that, but as usual he won't paint himself into a corner by stating exactly >what his opinion on the issue actually is. No Nod...all I'm asking is at what dollar cost to you say "bad luck fella..you're on your own, the budget cost to save your life is just too high" You avoid and waffle...when I ask if you've ever costed a helicopter rescue ride, you tell me you don't need to...You have NO idea what any of this costs. > OzOne of the three twins I welcome you to Crackerbox Palace.

In other words, she'd be contributing to the cost of her "rescue". She's 89 and so gets free ambulance.....The public pays for her 'rescue' Should they not pay because in your opinion she's stupid and doesn't deserve the help? > >> Oh and she had dementia..she is NOT stupid. > >She might not be stupid (assuming she's still alive), but the people who let >her roam free certainly are.

Yeah....I'm the one who pays a full time carer to live with her...unfortunately that carer needs to bathe and sleep and chaining my MIL up during those time is apparently not legal, Fool.
