Super. So refreshing to hear someone talk about the dignity of us all, regardless of how we look on a given day. so many of our elderly feel unloved.

Ok. Would have appreciated a comment about dying with that dignity

Thanks for the comment, if by dying with dignity you refer to a natural death with proper pain management, care, and medical attention, then we are on the exact same page. We have been fighting to improve end-of-life care for over 25 years!
