Dear Editor:
Few stories have upset me as much as this one has. How can some West Vancouverites be so callous? That their property valuewould trump human lives? Or is this another NIMBY thing that they do? According to the BC Alzheimer Society, more of us will be diagnosedwith Alzheimer's and other dementia-type diseases as we age. We can't merely cart out these people to other localities; they deserve a beautiful home and excellent care as the disease ravages their minds and bodies.
There are care homes in Lynn Valley and Mount Seymour, and these are still highly desirable areas tolive in. We are all aging, and while some of us will need assistance, there is no shame in that.
