J Smiles moves swiftly to shed light on a normalized bias in the United States that really irks her. The legal marginalization of the elderly. She gives examples of how lawmakers and policy pushers have not included Alzheimer's sufferers in their protective based legislations. She parallels television parental controls for minors and seeks the same progressive choices for caregivers. 

Ever the storyteller, and always with levity, J Smiles paints a picture of the immediate harm currently experienced by Zetty and offers real options for solution.
