I was just reading eve's diary about a woman she called in West Virginia. The woman has an illness that will be terminal and is immobile and her husband helps as best he can but loses hours everyday commuting to his job. Wonderful caring eve did her best to help from long distance by finding and providing this family with phone numbers of people who may be able to help.
Reading the diary and some of the comments is heartbreaking as everyone, regardless of their station in life or political persuasion, deserves better. I couldn't help but compare their circumstances with those of my parents in Canada and it's shameful that American families can't expect the same treatment. More of their story after the jump.
