He was in a nursing home and they would visit a couple times a week. When they visited, they would ask if he had any other visitors. Family, old friends, the usual. He was in good spirits that day and told them that he spent some time with my grandmother. My parents kinda let that go, figuring it was close to the anniversary of her death. He died that night Several years later, my Mom died of Cancer. Near the end, as my father tended to her, she told my Dad to be careful, he was getting in the way of the two men. Later, she said to my father. "Dad". My father replied that he was there (my parents called each other Mom and Dad). She said, "No, Dad. Your Dad". He said, "Yes, I'm Dad". She was weak but able to pull the oxygen from her nose, and in a lucid voice said "No, your Dad is here". And the "two men"...my grandfather was a twin

I wouldn't wish COVID on anyone. But if we have to start picking people to be infected, it's the only time I would consider voting for HRC -

My workplace has been divided into 3 teams. One team is on an indefinite telework status because they are over 60, have a medical condition that impairs the immune system, or someone in their household has an impaired immune system The other two teams are on a 3 days on/2 off/telework, 2 days on/3 off/telework rotation

While they play politics by adding poison pill pork barrel projects, people are dying of Coronavirus. Are Chuck and Nancy guilty of negligent homicide? -
