Last month was the first March without a school shooting in the United States since 2002. - Robert Klemko

School is out, they aren't getting shot at in their classrooms.

Instead it is their parents and grandparents that are dying from a lethal virus our government refused to acknowledge, until it was out of control. Now they refuse to help the vulnerable, dead and dying and those that are trying to keep them alive or at the very least let them die in peace. Years ago I was lucky to hold my dads hand for four hours before he died. These people are not allowed a loved ones touch before they die. The dying in peace is not happening. They are unable to assist them all, the shear volume of those that are ill is beyond belief. It is triage and the professionals are overwhelmed with these decisions.

The caregivers do not have enough PPE to protect themselves or their own families. This is what this government has done, stockpiling gear and handing it out as political favors.

I am grieving for all the families that have lost a loved one. One that they can mourn, yet have to mourn alone.

I will never forgive him or his Admin and GOP. It didn't have to be this way. They are all pure evil, not a heart or soul among them only blackness.

1. That's what touches me most....

There is something so basic about not having to die alone.

2. That and the need of a family to have the last touch.

I love the hospice workers that know when it is the end and they get us there in enough time to say goodbye.

3. They are special, indeed.

As per the usual, you are absolutely right. I was thinking about that sailor found by his fellows. My heart aches for him. I can not imagine the amount of suffering going across the world, right now. Maybe, they're will be some type of global response and tribute to those lost during this pandemic.

Stay strong, she.

4. There should be some tribute to all those that died.

Also thinking that their should be a 'wall built', a memorial wall in NY for all those buried in the mass grave in that park.

The images broke my heart.

You too, spicysista.
