Editor鈥檚 note: This is a re-run of my 2018 Christmas column. I think more than ever, it applies to our nation today. I long for us as a nation to adopt this concept and I will grieve for our nation until we do.
The familiar strains of this hymn of the Christian church is well known around the world. The words and music have implored millions of listeners to come and adore the Baby Jesus and to follow him. The name Jesus means 鈥渟aviour鈥漮r 鈥渞escuer鈥�.

Editor鈥檚 note: After two weeks away from my desk with surgery and a second bout in hospital with complications, I want to thank all the people who prayed for me. Thank you to son, Mike, for writing a column and wife, Christine, for doing the same. I hope and expect to make a full recovery, but won鈥檛 likely be back to full strength for some weeks yet. I have never slept so much in my life before. The care I received in three different hospitals was outstanding.

As the daily barrage of information with the COVID-19 pandemic comes across the airwaves, internet and newspapers, it is a challenge to sort through the static. As a guest editorial writer this week, I would like to isolate one of the underlying tones that is, at times, being lost in the babble.
As one looks back through the carnage, largely in the realm of long term care homes, I have a faint hope. I have hope that as a result of the horrific results we have seen, this will shine a spotlight on the need for a more intense focus on elder care in our country.
