I later discovered how they treated him witnessing first hand. Without going into details, I’d call it borderline elder abuse. God knows what was going on during that time when I wasn’t looking. The only reason I got the jab and a booster was because that was a requirement to visit with him which was supported by local/state/federal laws, even though I was the one paying the bills for his care.

We moved him to a better facility months before he died summer of last year. Covid lockdowns took away precious time that I should have spent with him. It pisses me off anytime I think about it, and I won’t ever comply with that bullshit again.
Lockdowns kept me from visiting my 97 year old, WWII vet, grandpa. We were planning on driving out to see him and other family that Christmas (after the lockdowns were supposed to end), but the care facility kept everyone in lockdown there for the next 12 months or so. Even after the bullshit shots came out you weren't allowed to visit, even if you got them.

It was right around the time he had a bad fall (broke his hip in two spots) that the facility started letting people visit (but you had to stay 6ft away, masked up, no contact at all and if you did come into contact with the elder person you were visiting then they were put into quarantine for 7 days - 7 days of total isolation from everyone else in the care facility). We had planned to come out in a couple months (since we live out of state) to visit, but sadly he fell and was basically put into a drugged comma until he passed away about a week later.

I never got a chance to see him again, not even on his deathbed - they were only allowing the patient's children to visit, as long as they were vaccinated (it was the only reason my dad got the shot, just so he could visit his dad one last time).

I couldn't come out to visit him during all this shit, but I at least went out of my way to call him at least once a week, at a minimum, to chat with him. I felt so bad he couldn't have visitors, I at least wanted to call and chat. My dad told me that grandpa would tell him that I was the only grandkid that would make an effort to call him (out of 14 grandkids) while he was locked up and couldn't have visitors.

This lockdown shit was all fucked up and the retards that think it helped, you're all fucked up, too.
