The operating room is closer to the center of the building. The large window remains, but it's covered with a large board.

One story I remember her telling me is that a lot of the patients used to have toys that they played with, like stuffed animals. Apparently at some point administration decided that toys like that were demeaning for the patients so one day they just went around taking all of the patients toys, many of whom where very upset. Besides that there were lots of stories of abuse, I remember one in particular about a patients arm being broken, unfortunatly lots of the people working there were very sadistic. From what i've heard, though, since the death in 2000 they've really turned the place around to the point where it's now considered one of the better facilities in the state.

That brings back some memories, this was my first hospital. My mother also worked here in the 80's and has told me lots of stories about the horrible things that went on here.
