Hi, This is a difficult time for us all. I feel like I’m such an OCD person and it’s sad to live like this. I am constantly asking my family to stay away and my daughter who is at home and college is so scared that she’ll get me sick. My husband recently had a minor surgery and I did not even go to the hospital. I am constantly cleaning the house with wipes and vinegar like it’s always dirty. I hope this will go away soon. Please everyone stay safe this will pass. Hugs to all. Hugs to you Terri:) Rita.

@america Thank you for the hugs Rita. Am hugging you back. I called the Mayo Clinic in Florida today and discussed the Covid-19 with the pulmonary dept. So far, they have not had a single case of it come to them as of yet. They have a system in place to check people before they are allowed to enter the building. I think at the moment they just ask 3 questions like probably 1) have you traveled outside the country 2) Have you been exposed to anyone who is sick 3) Are you having flu-like symptoms. As this flu ramps up though; I feel certain the pre-cautions before entering will be greater. As for the cleaning of your house; please try not to be OCD about it. I plan to start wiping mine down too at some point because I know my hubby isn't going to be as vigilant as me when in public and with hand washing. Plus, I have a young lady living here with us; so that is three people in this one house. We do have a private apt as well with just the two of us that we mainly stay in. Lets hope this virus morphs itself into a far less harmful version.
