We have been charged by Q, PDJT and countless others to stand up NOW. Pedes, you don't have to make a huge wave, just a small splash again and again. My current story: I have been waiting to become a Hospice volunteer for a long while and give back. Finally applied, and the process is as comprehensive as applying for a job. Then came the Vaxx/boosted question, to which I of course replied No. Was told I could apply for religious exemption, which I did.

Afterward, said Hospice director emailed me that we needed to have an "interactive conversation" about my sincerely held religious belief. Wanted to know how this affects my other health care decisions. Training begins tonight, so I needed to make a decision quickly. DH gave me several suggestions about things I could say. However, at the end of the day I told him this was infringing on my right to privacy. Would love to work with clients/families who don't care about boosting, but I feel if a gave even a millimeter more, it would be a win on the wrong end.

So, unfortunately, it looks like Hospice will lose someone with so much to give to another human going through end of life. But, it was time for another splash.
