Thank God Dawn. Someone responded to my post. I thought I was an idiot.
Exactly, why is it that gays can add a domestic partner (non blood relative, not legally married) yet you cannot add your grandson. See maybe this is how the GOP should go. Don’t fight against their rights as gays, fight for our rights to choose whoever we wish to insure whether that be your mom or dad, older dependent child, grandchild, elderly aunt, etc,. Isn’t a gay partner a friend that you are in a relationship with? So why are straight couples who live together not entitled to the same rights?

as straight unmarried couples or as platonic friends people can set up these same rights by giving each other power of attorney.
