'In 1956, Jeanette Piry was living in Hong Kong working for the French consulate when she met Grace who would become her partner for life.

...As gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender folks begin to age, many of them are turning their thoughts to what will happen to their sexual identities if they need in-home or residential care, what resources will be available to them, if they'll be separated from their partners and if they'll have to live with discrimination at a time when they are most dependent on the kindness and care of others.'
