Converging on Incongruence


Convergence 2019 is rapidly spawning incongruence. The dichotomy grows by the day. There is now very little to distinguish what is reality and what is not. And, more factors, both internal and external, continue to exacerbate the problem.

The odd Medicare subsidy from the State of Hawai’i is the latest episode. The subsidy appears be what is deemed Medicare Savings Plans (MSP), the eligibility of which is similar to Medicaid. In fact, MSP fall under Medicaid. However, an investigation yielded that the Medicaid/Quest account has been closed since the termination based on ineligibility. Thus, MSP disqualification should have been inevitable. That apparently is not the case.

There is no Hawai’i Kai visit scheduled anytime in the near future. The last visit with moms is constantly being mentally replayed. Each iteration supports the thesis that moms would probably not benefit by further visits, if moms is even cognizant of the latter. The goal of sibling estrangement is also a factor. At this point in time, there appears to be no further need to maintain any ties with family. A hard decision, but what other option is there?

There was some consideration about initiating a “microblog” using photos, but that’s a lost cause. The previous attempt failed miserably. The current iteration, Notes, is probably the wisest option, although future posts, once the “dust settles,” should be less frequent.

Aside from that, there is no “unfinished business” to handle. Only a few “loose ends” remain. Of course, there just doesn’t seem be any sense of emancipation or freedom. What gives?

Addendum: The Apple® News aggregator “app” on the iPhone XR was finally mummified after continued disappointing issues with alternative sources. The Weather ”app” was also mummified after consistently providing incorrect data.
