I've been occupied with some elder care issues so I did not get a newsletter out the last couple of weeks. To tide you over until this week's full newsletter, here are links to my most recent Medium stories. Recent articles
Thank you for your patience with my publishing schedule. Look for a full newsletter to be in your inbox by the end of the week. I'll be sharing a story about one of my cat's no good, very bad vet visit and how to find a vet clinic who provides as stress-free of a visit as possible.
