Holidays: Celebration or Challenge for Transplant Families

Thank you for all of your tips for the holidays. This is my first post transplant and I find it hard to say NO, or please wear a mask, or wash your hands and use sanitizer. And this is my job now to set limits even with my small grandson who is very active at 1 1/2 yo. I am still in recovery. And thank you for the ideas for treating a cold if I get one. I also asked my doc about the Evusheld, if I need it. I find my transplant center does not give much info about staying safe. I find strength from you all, thanks. BB

@blbird33 This morning I skipped out to a local craft show, held at the grange. They were very accommodating with me and my cane. However, I was literally the only one there wearing a mask. Speaking to one gentleman, he reminded me that I need to take care of myself, and if I am alone in the crowd wearing a mask, there is nothing wrong with that. Bless his heart!
Having to say "no" to those who would grace our houses without wearing a mask, who fuss at the thought we insist on it, well, it is in our best interest, isn't it? No one will do it for us. As my dad would say, "Take a stand, even if you stand alone."
