Saving Daddy

Daddy got to the care center from another care center.
At the other care center, he received bruises, didn't get the right medicine, was given the wrong medicine.
He was there only three days before Julie and her siblings took him out of there, into the second care center.

He seemed to be doing well in the second care center. Other patients loved him. He liked the social events. But after awhile, it became clear that the second care center started to do the same old thing. Patients had to eat at certain times only in the cafeteria, no eating in your room. So if Daddy missed a meal, he missed eating. He lost weight.  He got some more bruises from staff mishandling him.

Julie thought about bringing him home again and having 24 hour care at home. So he could get the right treatment.  Then the OD on morphine, the hospital, the second OD and comatose state, and Julie's fighting for her father's life again.
