  1. Someone I know is taking the lock from their side gate into the locksmith to get it keyed.
    And they'll phone the Australian National Dementia Helpline and ask about the legalities of locking doors & gates to stop an elderly person putting themself in grave danger.

    They're not feeling good.

    I'm thinking that being prevented from going out into the world is a significant change.
    It could be put into an Advanced Care Directive.

  2. 2/2
    I'd have thought this was a silly joke.

    But they're serious.

    "Trusted partners" - I'm seeing anyone proposing that they'll release medical and private data to anonymous others as inherently untrustworthy.

    A deal killer in my evaluation.

  3. Discovered #NaniEdgar singing #AlohaOe.

    Beatifully sad, gets the tears and sadness flowing.

    Which we rather need around here.

    Little pesky English (?) to take the focus away from the tone of the singing and instruments.

    If not now then when?
