Letters to the Editor for Feb. 8
Thank you to home care provider Becca Caneloz for serving those who served. I applaud her column regarding home care for veterans through the VA. Client-directed care is essential for dignity and independence, and fits within necessary budgets. In fact, it can make care more efficient. I strongly agree that with proper training and monitoring, paid family/friend caregivers are a valuable resource for clients and the home care delivery system as a whole.
I don’t know who is responsible for the care of this section, but as the mother of an Airman who served for 24 years, this is humiliating.Voting by mailI am a 97-year-old disabled veteran of WWII who is incensed that his right to vote will be denied by political action. As a winter snowbird from Colorado, I’ve taken note of the spate of recent pedestrian traffic deaths here, some accidental, some hit and runs, i.e. the tragic death of the “umbrella lady.”
Generally, I’m in the far-right lane, waving as they go by, saying to myself “see you at the next light.”P.S. Don’t even get me started on pot holes.Recently I read Dr. Barton Goldsmith’s column about coping with the sadness of isolation that comes from losing loved ones and all of the time spent socially isolated during the pandemic.
