Adelson Hospice deserves support

Unfortunately, my health has declined to the point that I require hospice care. I want to let others know how efficiently and lovingly care has been provided by the Nathan Adelson Hospice program.

One thing that I was not aware of and others may not know is that Nathan Adelson was a former CEO of Sunrise Hospital. He is not related to Sheldon Adelson of the Las Vegas Sands Corp.

This program deserves all the support it can.

Your love from relations and relationships

How is it that humanity is becoming lonelier while the population of the planet is rapidly rising beyond eight billion people? We are talking with each other less in person, demonstrating love with our presence. Our hearts stir when we are with those we love, don’t they?
