Norwegians

(1966 August 13)
Norwegians, old and hard of hearing, gather in the hall chairs [outside LL's hospital room] and talk like crazy.  LL tells the nurses it doesn't bother him at all but tells me it does.  There is no lounge on 2nd & 3rd floors.  He wanted the radio on and the nurse got all mixed up and handed him the TV remote control.  Then the loan radio of Holly [Strang]'s wouldn't go.  ...  Holly brot him a new FM that played beautifully, blocking out the Norwegians with concert.  Helped a lot.
