Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: At the new bar for some elderly patients in Sunnybrook Hospital, Alfred Last lifts his glass with nurse Gail Dailley. The daily drink prescribed for the patients used to be handed out in rooms like medicine, now it's at a convivial gathering that acts as a tonic in itself. Some patients need less sedation than they did.
