July 7, 2024, Sunday night, 8:06pm, pacific standard time, apartment in Dana Point,California,USA. Got back from Lompoc just before noon today. I helped unpack the car then headed on to Dana Point. I spent the afternoon at home, doing laundry and chatting with friends. My daughter’s mom’s mom is having issues with her health and there are questions about long term care. I am trying to offer advice and be objective. Some tough decisions with significant financial ramifications lie ahead. I see this all the time with patients and their families at work but, it is different when it hits this close to home.
