237. Went to the Hospice this morning with Phoebe to visit Nancy and was told that only one person was allowed in the room at a time. Ella came by later to visit her mom and at that point there was a new directive, no visitors at all, period. 1/3

i’m not complaining – I know that this is an extraordinary time and we have to observe extraordinary protocols to prevent further loss of life. It’s just a bit shocking to see how fast things are changing and how draconian it has to be. 2/3

I did feel terrible for people who had shown up without calling in advance, expecting things to be the same as they were yesterday, only to be turned away. As we were leaving we saw an entire extended family, including young kids, having to leave rather than see grandma. 3/3

238. My heart goes out to all the people who are dealing with catastrophic illnesses & medical problems, situations that are stressful enough on their own, but positively surreal under the current circumstances, the worst public health crisis in decades.

No matter how many times he says it ― no matter how many times he repeats it, please know that the current occupant of the White House *is lying*.
We deserve better.

241. Nancy is back home from the hospice & currently sleeping soundly. She was in there to have her meds adjusted in a situation where professionals could observe her & make adjustments. We were told the process could last up to a week. Luckily it didn’t.

242. No one should have to deal with the type of intense recurring pain that Nancy is in. It’s neuropathic, caused mainly by cancer-damaged or partly collapsed vertebrae pinching the nerve endings in her left leg. Hoping new meds will alleviate this.

243. I wish this entire story were basically happy. I’m sure a lot of folks muted me long ago because it’s all too intense & sad, and I totally get that.

I'm grateful for your emotional honesty and generosity. It's always moving and sometimes hard to read this thread, but I find it valuable. I'm not a praying person but I do believe in compassion as a force. You remind me of that & I hope what you're sending out comes back to you.
