37. We care for...

Apr 2021

We care for my 98 year old grandmother. She is in good health relatively speaking and still enjoys travel and is looking forward to a post COVID Disney vacation, likely her last. Her primary Doc (a wonderful woman who has gone above and beyond to provide care for her through all this) told her not to get vaccinated because the side effects could be harmful to her. I don't have any reason to question her medical advice and I'm not sure why anyone else would either.
