Veterans Day plea to visit VA hospitals and cheer veterans
A Northern California veteran's wife recounts hospital stays at the San Francisco VA Medical Center and urges readers to visit veterans year round. She praises staff, notes many patients have no visitors, and suggests simple, compassionate actions like bringing flowers or talking with residents to ease loneliness. The note emphasizes Veterans Day Memorial Day and the Fourth of July as times to brighten veterans' days.
