I feel sorry for the people in that home, maybe you could suggest cheap low GI index alternatives such as tomato soup. I would hate to end up somewhere like that and I guess the supposedly educated people believe they are running a good service for the patients at the home, which is the worst part. As an optimist I would hope things can get better.  |
Haahaha I like the idea of a mind meld or a fact sheet...however, people around here already regard me as a bit of a kook... don't want to confirm it!
I think I might print out a bunch of possible recipes for them to make for the occupants though.. even if I only came up with good desserts. it would probably save them from some high bgs... One aspect is she says they end up 'treating' them as they are all developmentally delayed and have childlike personalities although they are about 25-30 yrs old.. I can see how that can happen, I am sure they are trying to be nice to them, I just suspect they have no clue as to what they are really doing. Every time it comes up I feel really bad about it though, so at least if I do that it might spark some interest on their part that there is another way..and esp if I nag my pal to nag them!
