William Haines (1900-1973), American actor and Interior Designer. In 1926 William met the great love of his life James “Jimmie” Shields. The two men soon began living together and viewed themselves as a committed couple. They remained together until William’s death in 1973. Best friend Joan Crawford once described them as "the happiest married couple in Hollywood”. In 1933, William Haines was arrested in a YMCA with a sailor he had picked up in Los Angeles’ Perishing Square. Louis B Mayer, the studio head at MGM, delivered an ultimatum to William: choose between a sham “Lavender” marriage (marriages arranged by studio bosses to cover up the true sexuality of their gay stars) or his relationship with Jimmie. William chose Jimmie and gave up acting. The two men then began a highly successful dual career as Interior Designers and Antique Dealers. Among their clients were friends such as Joan Crawford, Gloria Swanson, Carole Lombard, Marion Davies and George Cukor. William Haines died of lung cancer on 26th December 1973. Jimmie was heartbroken and inconsolable. Soon after William’s death he took an overdose of sleeping pills. His suicide note read in part, “Goodbye to all of you who have tried so hard to comfort me in my loss of William Haines whom I have been with since 1926. I now find it impossible to go it alone, I am much too lonely”. The couple are interred side by side in Woodlawn Memorial Cemetery in Santa Monica.

First, congratulations on your recovery! Yes it is true that healthcare worker can't accept gifts or tips for patients. The exception being only if you privately hire them yourself for homecare. However it is common place to have a nice bouquet of flowers sent to the main nurses desk on the floor where you received you care together with a card of thanks and gratitude. Also a nice letter to management describing your satisfaction and fine treatment by staff members which you can mention by name and position does go a long way. These letters are not overlooked when it comes time for promotions, pay raises or if future complaints ever arrive against mentioned staff members. Few people take the time these days to express thanks to exceptional care or services or to complain when things are bad. For this reason I always fill out surveys because how else will management know how clients feel about products and services. May you have a full and speedy recovery!
