Good luck! ( and wear yer helmet

Ok,my inner grammar teacher can't let the above post remain uncorrected! "I am going to check with the Belcourt theatre in Nashville and see if a screening of GenSilent can be arranged." Lawdy,I should know better than to post and talk to my Mama at the same time!! P.S. I will be wearing a helmet to ride today Elfbro!" Sorry for the derail!

Thanks Jess for posting the link as others have said a very important subject and one we will all be faced with at some point in our lives.

Here is a link to a few GLBIT retirement homes, it's good to know there are already a few out there even if the options are limited.

Article from June of this year from the San Diego Gay and Lesbian News. It mentions Harold and Clay, the older gay male couple who were separated despite POA and other documents. I would love to see a follow up of what happened with Clay after Harold's passing.

Good article with several resources...

Remember with aging you tend to get sick. All the money in the world won't hold your hand while you are laying in a hospital bed or wheel chair in an Asst. Living Facility, or Nuring Home. Money is great, but it isn't the end all. And state run facilities are horrible from what I have experienced.
