It is not just a myth: Gay partners are indeed kept from the bedsides of their partners


Call me a naive blogger who was shocked to read their stories

I wrote about it on my healthcare blog. And I'm feeling a bit haunted by these stories. Two women kept from their partners as they died. In one case, children kept from their dying mother.

Michael Steele can blather on about how much it will cost us to enact gay marriage (in that case why have marriage at all? I mean, seriously.) But what do these stories cost us? There is a reason the majority of Americans think we're heading in the wrong direction. I don't think it's because of the ways we are trying to be more open, inclusive, generous etc.

Bah! Read it and weep.
