This is why I wrote the article I did for the Blog
and the real reason nobody has stepped up to the plate to help the
veterans.
The Home is a place where the average person thinks is a good
place for the Veterans. There is no need to worry about them there .
Nobody has taken the time to look behind the closed doors any more than
they look behind the closed doors at nursing homes. It is social issue
that is ugly and people don't want to acknowledge it or acknowledge its
existence.
People are more apt to respond to a dog being abused than a
veteran being abused. There are still many people who will look the
other way when they see a disabled person. Their heart and soul can't
even begin to fathom what a man with no legs has to deal with. If they
look the other way, then that person doesn't exist.
