Cadence’s little brother has a new puppy, a Golden Retriever named Shelby. Cadence sent me this photo and said “Granny, I don’t know what I would do without Shelby, she’s my new best friend”. Cadence’s university is closed for the year. She is doing her nursing classes on line, helping her 5 year old brother with his schoolwork and taking care of Shelby, while her mother works in the children’s hospital in Fort Worth, literally on the front line fighting Covid. Having Shelby has helped everyone cope so much better with the mandated isolation.
The saying that a dog is man's best friend is a truism for a reason, dogs ARE the best! With luck we will be getting our new pup in a couple of weeks! Very sweet photo.
@lynnz I have been absolutely terrified for Hillary. She’s working such long hours right now and she was having to reuse her N95 masks for a couple weeks till they received a shipment from FEMA. We were beside ourselves that she was having to reuse her masks. Even today she has to use one mask all day, from patient to patient, instead of a new mask for each case. The struggle is real for our healthcare workers.
@lynnz she rotated 3 masks those two weeks, putting them in closed brown paper sacks in her car for 3 days ( the virus dies off of surfaces in 72 hours). She’s insanely smart and doing everything she can to protect herself and her family. She’s my hero.
