I don't think Canada has suddenly started requiring visas for Americans.

And while I'm old, as in trombones years old, I am the healthiest person I know. I don't get sick. I haven't had a cold in perhaps 15 years. I literally never get the flu, as in I last had influenza sometime in the mid-70s, and never since. I don't bother with flu shots, either, although I'm not about to tell anyone else they shouldn't get one. Which means I would have almost no reason to seek out health care.

If I honestly had one wish, it would be that everyone could be as healthy as I am. A lot of doctors and nurses would need to find other work, and some hospitals would close, but wouldn't that be nice?

I currently live in senior living, and I'm shocked, really shocked at how many people here need walkers. Okay, I know they aren't using them without needing them, but still.

I am strongly encouraging My Son The Astronomer to look for a job overseas, once he completes his PhD. Hopefully he'll find one in a country that mom can also go to, but if not, he still needs to leave this country.
