Yes, that was definitely a nice thing for them to do.
I've never been in a hospital long enough to eat there but I have
to wonder if the bad reputation of hospital food is true or not..  B)

That takes it to a whole new level..

That can be important, both for self esteem and the activity might
help to keep one in better shape.. I think giving up on things
kills a lot of people. There are so many people you hear who were
in poor health but still somewhat acive and then they end up in
the hospital, and a few days or weeks later they are gone.

My mother really wasn't all that bad healthwise (for 92) but ended
up in hospital for a broken leg and she really should have been
okay but just wasted away there and died a couple of weeks later..
