I became a grandparent this afternoon! My son and wife delivered a little girl in Bend Oregon. We are debating on whether to make the drive and visit and practice SDS (Safe Distance Strategies) as soon as they are discharged. No one other than my son allowed in the hospital. What a glorious day and a great feeling that rushed over me today! Between my wife and I this makes 4 granddaughters. Still waiting for a boy.

Never would have guessed... congratulations.

I'll be farming as usual so long as I haven't caught it. Should be easy not catching it, least for now. Out here it's remote and no people except me, the wife and the animals and I farm alone. Fingers crossed on that one. I'm still amazed just how fast it's brought this country to it's knees. Just amazing.

Italy' death rate to date: 4,032/47,021=.085= 8.5%
Germany's d rate to date: 68/19,848 =.0034= .34% wow!

The analysis after this is all said and done, in terms of unpacking what accounts for the variations in infection spread and the ultimate toll it takes will be interesting.

Hopefully some lessons learned.

The 11PM news just announced Ohio reported its first COVID-19 death earlier today, also the medicine for a clinical trial was delivered to the Cleveland Clinic earlier.

Yep... this is what happened here... the help I had with Mom and the Senior Center she enjoyed twice a week gave me a little respite to get needed things done...

I also save trips to the market so she could go... it was something she really enjoyed... getting out and going along for the ride.

Totally doesn't comprehend the situation now... and this is after 45 years as a RN.

Reduced hours at work are coming none to soon... this way I can get home sooner.

They say memory care givers can't do it all but that is what you do when you are it.

I'm a single parent of my 86 year old Mom... and Mom keeps asking when can she go home which was planned this May... it is not going to happen and she can't accept that... strange what the mind remembers and forgets.

Thanks Guys! I just wanted to inject some positive vibes into this room and relay some personal struggles with how to go about 'living' with/without typical family practices not just toilet paper. :D
:drink:

Oh and if my posts get a little squirrelly later on, I will blame on the finest sipping tequila I own.
