Mornng (if morning it be where this finds you), and season’s greetings. The good folk at The Guardian have let us back in the paper again. You can find the story here:

https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2020/dec/26/i-expect-my-elderly-parents-to-die-but-to-suffer-alone-the-truth-about-caring-through-covid

The faithful and observant will note some borrowed content from the last post, but there is new material as well, I swear.

To anyone coming here from the new Guardian piece, welcome. Again, you might bump into a couple of sentences you recognize in the next post but scroll down the page for fresh elderly larks aplenty.

If you missed it, here’s the original Guardian piece from 2019.

https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2019/jan/19/dad-more-comebacks-than-elvis-confessions-of-a-reluctant-carer

And news of the book, which, due to the ‘Rona, will now be with us in Spring 2022, it seems.

A better New Year to everyone.
