My Dad recently passed away w/o family with him behind the locked doors of a care facility, due to COVID restrictions. Had I been allowed to be there, I would have made clear my love for my Dad the way Joe made wonderfully clear to son in this photo.

In Oregon, the state legislature is “decider” on this issue: they need to look at better balancing the current law. “The mayor… said he has a "moral obligation" to get people with mental illness the help they may not have the capacity to know they need.”
