Numbers keep ramping up here and everywhere with very few very isolated
exceptions.
Anecdotes are not complete science but here are a couple of facts:
My dad has been in a vets home before and through this pandemic. 100% by his
own choice. Had lots of options pre-pandemic and since.
Thank you, Emily!
These are scary times, and we each have to make our decisions, but let's

I'm not a list moderator for this particular SW list but I am a list
