<strong> My grandchildren were quarantined for a second time this week. They were exposed by playing with the neighbor kids. </strong> Until kids can be vaccinated covid will keep circulating. Thankfully they tested negative today. I missed not being able to take care of them, but couldn't put my other grandchildren at risk whom I also care for.<strong> This happened on the anniversary of my mother's death from covid. So ironic and sad</strong> that it is still and issue. <strong> I miss my mom and think of her often, but I am feeling more at peace since I attended an online grief event.</strong> I said that I felt so bad not being with my mom when she was dying.<strong> One of the other people in the group asked me if she talked about people who had passed away. She actually did. About 4 days before she died she told me to come over so I could see her aunt and her mother. The other person said she wasn't alone. That gave me some peace.</strong>
