I’m sorry to read this and I send good healing thoughts and prayers. I wish more could/would be done. It’s gut wrenching.

I am a "young" senior living in a senior apt complex. I look at my neighbors and know that many wouldn't survive it. I am being extra cautious about my contacts with the outside world, and touching anything here.

Everyone else here seems to be self-isolating, so hopefully we will escape any effects. We're on the Oregon coast - no cases yet, but still scary.

It sounds like you are, but just keep that up. Sending hugs.

I just hate all of this! The fear. The lack of information. The misinformation. The lack of preparedness and the Trump administration obviously just not giving a damn.
