Default Re: Food, Fasting and Religion

Thank you, TallPoppy! It is so important to understand other's beliefs in order to provide optimum care for the individual. I did not realize that many Roman Catholics fasted for an hour before communion and I used to live in an area that was heavily populated with believers of that faith. It's interesting and I try to keep myself open to what is important to others.
