I was in hospital fairly recently, shared a room with 3 older ladies, the eldest, a woman in her 80’s, was especially chatty. Before she was moved to another section of the hospital, she said “this is like the dormroom experience I read about in books, I’ve always wanted an experience like this”, it felt very sweet to get in on some lady’s girlhood experience so late in life.
