The candle stick has fallen from the table and lies unobserved smoking on the floor at her feet, the snuffer also on the floor beside a cat who grabs the food from a plate that has also fallen to the floor. The table by the nurse's elbow holds medicine bottles as well as dishware. More medicine bottles are on the mantel and at her feet. A pot warms over the fire
