Mr. Richards, the new patient at the Birch Street Nursing Home, is settling in nicely and has made friends with all the other patients. In fact, when I got there this morning, he was leading several of the patients in a medley of show tunes in the activity room. I was surprised to learn that Mrs. Henley has a good voice. There was a lot of energy at the poker table today, and Mr. Richards had what Mrs. Lieberman calls beginner's luck. Before I left this afternoon, Mr. Richards handed me his winnings and a list of things he wants me to pick up for him. Number one on his list is bright turquoise fabric to replace the drapes in his room. He said those awful drapes will kill him before old age does.
