A vigil of one
There are shockingly many disabled people murdered by their caregivers.
The links here are mostly pointing out that media coverage tends toward sympathizing with the perpetrators, rather than the victims:

The national day of mourning was Wednesday, but I saw a notice of a vigil in Harvard Square (Brattle Square) today from 1-3PM, I think. I got there at 1:30, and saw nothing that could be it. Just people passing by, and the usual homeless folks not passing by but not mourning, either. Did they meet on time, decide it was too cold, and go somewhere else? This is my vigil substitute, I guess.
