It is sad but true that in some nursing homes things disappear. When my mom could no longer wear a bra I bought her tube top type item to wear. They all disappeared in no time. The day she died and I had to go and get her things from the nursing home they acted like I was going to steal the wheel chair while hauling out her things. I had to inform them that this was her personal wheel chair which we had bought. I also had to ask the nurse to give me the gel pad we had for the chair as the nurses had been using it. Sad when people take advantage of the sick and elderly.
