I know, these Lanterns are darker compared to the ones I usually write. Again, these ones hit close to home, and they are specific to MY experience. I, unfortunately, have a relative who is in the hands of the care-system. They're completely vulnerable and I've seen firsthand, how nasty they can be. I witnessed a situation where the so-called carer put their hands on my relative and things...took a really dark turn. I don't like to think about it. It's just makes me sad and sick that these people are in the business of care for the money. I know that it's not just my family that the care-system has failed, too. It's a thorn that's deep in my emotional pain. sigh
