   Design doesn’t have to be daunting. Some people really find it challenging to take on their entire home, because they don’t know their aesthetic, they don’t know where they want to go, my advice is always find that one piece you love. It could be a pillow, it could be a sofa, it could be a china cabinet – find that one piece and build off that, because if there’s a piece you’re really in love with, it’s a good indication you want to go in that style direction.

   Theres an investigation on the hospital side where theyre looking at all the system failures that would have allowed this to happen for nine months, and then, we have a criminal investigation... so they can hopefully charge the person of interest and were hoping thats sooner rather than later. We understand thats a pretty daunting part of the investigation. Whats frustrating is that they havent moved forward with the hospital side of the investigation because they know the system failures that allowed this person to do what she did for as long as she did.
