A visit to the hospital (to see someone)

I just visited Jerome in the hospital. He got so dizzy at home that his daughter became very worried and took him to Brattleboro Memorial Hospital, which is just a few blocks from where they live. She must have used her boyfriend's car. I think he's been there a couple of days. He is still pretty woozey and says his head hurts, but that has been the case for some time. They've done a lot of tests but no clear indication yet of what's going on. So no word yet of how long he will be there. I hope they can fimd him some relief because he has felt rotten for some time - this is just an extreme case of it. There are things going on in the family too. DJ, Mary Tolles' foster-son, is in the hospital after a drug overdose. He was found unresponsive and while he is better now, it is unclear what the longterm consequences will be. We are holding him and Mary in the light. There is much to be concerned about today!
I didn't think Jerome would appreciate being photographed in the hospital bed, but here is a nice one with his daughter, Margaret, from the past.
The corridor outside Jerome's room. I guess this could be anywhere in the U.S.
A memorial to Mike Gregg in the lobby at BMH. Mike was the husband of Lila Gregg, a pillar at the Guilford Church. He worked for the CDC in Atlanta for decades.
