Another sad casualty of #COVID19 - eyesight. As a rare complication of #cancer treatment, I have escalating nuclear cataracts in both eyes. But all eye surgeries have been cancelled indefinitely. My vision is failing fast.

Spent the day writing a considerations document for the reintegration of family caregivers as essential partners in care for an expanded population(s) of patients. We need family caregivers. A harm reduction approach can be adopted. No more blanket 'visitor' restrictions

Military members deployed to Ontario long-term care homes saw cockroaches and residents left in dirty diapers or left unbathed for weeks, sources tell CBC News. cbc.ca/news/politics/…

I want to commend the 285 Canadian Armed Forces members working in 5 Ontario care homes who not only bravely risked their own lives to help others on our own soil, but have bravely spoken up to report the tragic circumstances they have witnessed as well. globalnews.ca/news/6986338/m…

#IShouldHaveBeenThere Patients need advocates, people who can support and relay critical information. Anti-family support policies are becoming entrenched 16 months post Covid onset. We need a major rethink that is evidence based.
