re: #95 Mattand

Hang in there. That’s rough.

i felt, and feel, a lot of guilt because i have my mom and mrsdm doesnt have hers (or her dad)
we talked about it and i said i was sorry
she said i was an idiot (nicely and with a smile)
but she understood why it bothers me

i havent seen my brother’s family in a year or more - philadelphia
and my niece is coming for a visit from israel after 2 years. we wont see her either.
it’ll all be by zoom
my sister was able do drive down here more or less nonstop from north carolina - no overnight. - immediate laundry, shower etc - so we figured she was safe enough. stayed 2 weeks. that was good for mom.

it’s tough.
we cope
