It is hard for us Oldtimers to be Mindful of not being around the Young, who could be carriers. I'm down to one Grandchild I'm Raising and I cannot lie, I was concerned that when they were still requiring them to be in School, I had no Control over what she might drag Home from attending Classes that could Kill us?! Plus, she herself is Medically Fragile so that terrified me too! Thankfully they closed the Schools without me having to just tell the System I wasn't sending her for those reasons. I know that will be difficult for so many Families tho' ... it's all so complicated, isn't it?

We're just trying to all feel a little safer and if a room full of toilet paper does it for you- well, bless you. <br />I don't know what Maggie's fascination with the hen house is.

I just had my sister on the phone in tears (she has two). As our grandchild is on the other side of the planet anyway, I highly recommend that you all get your facetime, skype or whatsapp in order because you can share bedtime stories, sing-a-longs, playtime, even meals etc. that way.

We aren’t spring chickens. Of course this really complicates the heartbreaking situation I’m trying to help her get through. I wish we could keep our loved ones in a bubble too.

Now both our university hospitals have drive through testing, with a doctor's order. Just the point of this administration having the teams in place, the infrastructure in place, and being willing to step up the the mic every day and explain the current situation is heartening. It still boils down to common sense at the personal level.
