All Info Pertaining to The Highlands

All Info Pertaining to The Highlands
Jean and I moved to The Highlands in the Fall of 2007 from our home on Cousins Island in Yarmouth where we had lived for 30 wonderful years. I often think that I'd like to share a thought or an experience about our life here at The Highlands with other folks . . . and by this "blog" I am going to do so. One other thought. The Highlands is not in any way responsible for this website. This is wholly the personal responsibility of Stan Sylvester. Jean Sylvester has her own site at http://www.catcarewithlove.blogspot.com/ mostly devoted to her writings, her poetry and her experience as a professional cat care person in Yarmouth. SPECIAL NOTE TO VISITORS: In addition to scrolling down to view contents of my blog, when you reach the bottom you can click on "older posts" to review all the topics I've posted.

Being Sick Is No Fun!

After a couple of days of not feeling well, I went to The Emergency Ward of the Mid-Coast Hospital on Sunday, August 21.

I was quickly admitted and surprised to learn that I had a pneumonia. It really laid me low and required lots of IV fluids and IV antibiolics. I gradually improved and was well enough to leave the hospital six days later. I can't say enough good about the care I received in the hospital -- the nursing, the medical care, the CNAs, the dining service --  all were first class.

I was delighted by the many cards I received, a couple of which I have reproduced here.



This and the cards below brought me greetings from so many of my Highlands "family"
   
I was especially pleased that so many of the waitstaff sent their good wishes


I have been told that Louise Cornman was the stimulus behind at least one of these cards

I'm improved and ready to leave the hospital and return
to Jean and The Highlands
