In case anyone is wondering, yes the last few Cyanide comics are extra dark. It's "Depressing Comic Week 15" and you should get a Sad Larry Plush to celebrate (I just order mine)... https://www.makeship.com/products/explosm-plush?utm_source=website&utm_medium=display&utm_campaign=Q3_2023_Explosm_Entertainment&utm_content=Art%20&%20Animation_Explosm_Entertainment

    When my grandmother in law went into a care home a few of the workers used to always correct her when she talked about her husband being away doing something.

    There was no need for it and it was heartbreaking every time to see the confusion on her face.

      That's awful. I'm so sorry you both had to endure that. Anyone trained properly in memory care knows to not correct people precisely because of how much needless distress it causes the patient.

      If we're lucky, we get to live long enough to meet the same new people every day and laugh at the the same joke every day. If we're unlucky, we remember the people that are there anymore.
