I remember when my grandmother’s friends, one at a time were sent off to the state hospital when they showed signs of dementia. It was always considered a tragedy. My grandmother lived in New Jersey, so it was Ancora, a state hospital that was not much more than a warehouse for the mentally deficient. I’m afraid that is where we are headed, again. I remember hearing the sadness in my grandmother’s voice as she described the prison like dress that they made the patients wear.
