“I work the front desk at a small doctor’s office, and I wish people could see what happens on the other side of the phone.
Every day, older patients call us confused.
They are told to use the patient portal, upload documents, check lab results online, fill out forms before the visit, and confirm everything through a link.
Some of them do not know what a portal is.
Some do not have a smartphone.
Some have one, but they are afraid to click the wrong thing.
Last week, a man in his late 80s called about his test results.
He said, “Ma’am, I don’t mean to bother you, but the computer says I have a message and I don’t know how to open it.”
He sounded ashamed.
That broke my heart.
He should not have to feel ashamed for needing a human being.
Technology can be helpful. I understand that.
But when people who built this country are made to feel helpless because everything became a login and a password, we have gone too far.
Not everything needs to be an app.
Not every answer should be hidden behind a screen.
Sometimes people need a voice.
A patient person.
A real human who says, “Don’t worry, I can help you.”
Progress should not leave seniors behind.
Because one day, the world will move faster than us too.
And I hope someone is kind enough to slow down.

Bryan Adams just released a song calling Canada “home.”
Bryan Adams also lives in London, England.
Bryan Adams has lived there for decades.
Bryan Adams has a tour launching July 24 in St. Louis.
Bryan Adams is using the same playbook Mike Myers ran in the Carney campaign ad, while openly admitting “everybody knows I don’t live here.”
Someone needs to tell Bryan Adams that Canadian identity isn’t a merch drop for those who left before the internet.
Vince is always a highlight of the Osoyoos Canada Day Parade. For years he was homeless. The town loves Vince. He proudly cleans up after the horses in the parade. 🇨🇦

@japan_nobunaga In BC Canada, our metro city transit system has its own police, in addition to city forces for each of the cities in the Greater Van metro area. Some of those are still served by the federal RCMP. Who are mostly only mounted for special duties... :) it's geography....
It will be wild that the first official agreed upon English translation in America will be in ASL.
Not the Our Father. Not the Creed. Not Baptisms. ASL.
Like or hate Rebel News, MSM should have been the ones asking these questions of the imam. Only threat mentioned-- someone said they would come and unplug the loudspeaker. Someone else asked for an explanation of the Arabic words, and the imam also calls that a 'threat'.
.@EzraLevant presses the director of the Regina mosque that plays the Islamic call to prayer to explain the threats the mosque has faced, which he said included an individual who wanted to pull the audio cable out and another who didn't agree with Arabic being played.
@RebelNewsOnline@ezralevant Can't seem to bring himself to refer to 'Jews and Christians' or whoever else called to ask questions about the meaning of the Arabic.... 'the other people'.
BREAKING: Someone in the Prime Minister’s Office told a friendly pollster their plan for 24 Sussex, 7 weeks before the announcement.
The pollster tested it.
Then the pollster results gave the green light.
Carney then announced the donation scheme as if it were a fresh idea based on humility.
The PMO now refuses to tell Canadians who in cabinet ran the play to conduct A/B marketing tests on their plan.
And now, he wants you to build it with your after-tax dollars. All because of a survey result.
Insane.
