Posted in: 93-year-old man arrested after trying to kill patient sharing same hospital room See in context

A private room is expensive daily, a semi private room is also, even with hoe can show, jp insurance card. Room cost can exceed treatment cost quickly. And some of these ww2 survivors geezers can be grumpy, and janky to say the least. They should make a bucket list and kick it.
