Dear Abby ; Cutting their roots may wither the vine

DEAR ABBY: Please print this as an open letter to all well-meaning daughters and sons who bring a widowed parent to live near them, setting mama or papa up in a small, cheerful apartment with a good address. They seem to think that is sufficient. These older single parents have left behind friendships of many years, with roots deeply imbedded in a community of familiar faces, places to shqp and places to go. Now, suddenly, they are thrown into a strange, unfamiliar setting where they are expected to make new friends and “start over” in the twilight of their lives. Well-meaning children should first try to get their parents into an apartment complex where there are many elderly people like themselves. They should find out what is offered in the way of activities for the older person, and also entertain for them, inviting the parents of their friends. Young people haven’t the foggiest notion of how difficult it is for a lone parent to “start over” in a strange environment. How could they? They have never Kad to do it. Being old myself and having been through such a move, I can feel for the newcomer. I pray this makes your widely read column. “84” IN SOUTH CAROLINA DEAR “84”: One prayer answered. Thanks for a letter that could help many. * * * DEAR ABBY: All the letters about the nursing profession

prompt this letter, which happens to be my problem. We have a very fine 16-year-old son who wants to be a nurse! Abby, he is bright and ambitious, but his choice of a profession is a big disappointment to his father and me. How can we convince him that nursing is a profession for women, not men? MISSOURI PARENTS DEAR PARENTS: Although currently most nurses are women, more and more men are entering the field, and for a good reason: Many male patients are much more comfortable with a male nurse than a female. Fortunately, many young people today are selecting their careers based on their own interests and abilities rather than on which sex is dominant in a given field witness the number of female physicians, engineers, lawyers. Don’t discourage your son from becoming a nurse. Be grateful that he has chosen a profession that is so important to the well-being of so many people. * * * DEAR ABBY: My roommate, Anita, and I are faithful readers of your column and would like you to referee an argument for us.

Napping causes embarassment

By G. Timothy Johnson, M.D. Dear Dr. Johnson: I’ve had a problem since childhood with falling asleep in class, during church services, while playing cards, etc. It has been, I must say, quite embarrassing at times. Even now, I can’t get through the day without napping, and it seems to make no difference how much sleep I get at night. I’ve gone through whole batteries of tests, but my doctors say there’s nothing really wrong with me. Is this possible? - Raymond V., Elizabeth, N. J. Dear Raymond: It’s not unusual for fatigue such as you describe to be caused by emotional rather than physical

problems. But on the other hand, we do have some relatively new information about sleep disorders, and it may be that you suffer from a form of narcolepsy that is rather simply defined as a strong desire to sleep even when it’s inappropriate. It might be worth your while to contact a major medical center to see if they have a department -- or at least a specialist - interested in sleep disorders.

and said she would take care of having it fixed. Nothing was said about who would pay for its repair. The charge for repairing the typewriter was about S2O. Anita feels that she should not be expected to foot the entire bill because she insists that she was using the typewriter correctly when the key broke, and therefore it wasn’t her fault. I think that since the typewriter broke while Anita was using it, she should pay for fixing it. She agreed to wait for your answer before returning the typewriter. What do you say? DOUBLE-SPACED IN BERKELEY DEAR SPACED: Even though Anita may not have been responsible for the breakage, the typewriter was in perfect working order when she borrowed it and should be returned in the same condition. ♦ * * Do you hate to write letters because you don’t know what to say?

Dear Dr. Johnson: Are all milk intolerance problems caused by lactose-digestion abnormalities? -- Kevin F., Amarillo, Tex. Dear Kevin: You’re raising one of the really hot topics in medical science these days. The general answer is: apparently not. Certainly milk tolerance in some cases can be attributed to an inability to digest the milk sugar known as lactose. But in others there apparently are problems with milk that can’t
