Because the end of their lives should be just as difficult...

This NYTimes article is also something that could make me cry. Discriminating the elderly for being gay? What is this world coming to? I realize that those in nursing homes are from a less liberal generation, but just because a homosexual is living in the same building as you does not mean you have to make their already short lives even shorter. I find it very disappointing that when you are finally ready to relax and try to enjoy the last years of your life you are forced to be someone other than your true self.
