(21,206 posts)No day program just hanging out in his room. We picked him up for his every other weekend home And he is having troubling grasping the enormity of this situation. We told him life is going to change and we have to be flexible and accept whatever happens. He seems to grasp that this virus kills people and you have to wash your hands and today we took him to Lowes and I made him wear gloves. When we got home we washed our hands again.
But I hear your concern and fears, life as we know it will change and Im trying to not be scared or think negative (except for that orange maggot anus who appears on tv everyday mocking reality] My older sister is freaking out and getting depressed. I work as a substitute No jobs for the next three weeks, hubby works for the airlines and so far they have offered to cut his hours or he takes his unused sick days. But maybe this might be the thing that brings families back together and people go back to cooking for the,selves and helping out that elderly neighbor who is housebound. We have to look for the positives and be optimistic.
