it's hitting closer to home right now..

we've just postponed a seven week overseas trip,

our daughter woke up with a sore throat this morning (after two days at uni).. no temp, no fever, no headache BUT we decided to keep her home from her job (thankfully she can work from home), as much as you can keep an almost 22 year old home but grateful she is as cautious as we are being.

We cancelled our weekend plans, we were having friends for lunch and tea on our Sabbath on Saturday and are watching our girl like a hawke. Hubs managed to get to the library and got some books for the weekend.

The Grand Prix was cancelled at the last moment this morning and now our PM says no gatherings over 500 from Monday.

Our son, on the other hand, is in Israel on his gap year!!!!
No school for the next five weeks, no one to enter the country if you can't self quarantine in a home, no gatherings over 100 people and more.
We had to give his programme names of people who would be willing to house our son if he had to quarantine!! We are so grateful and thankful that we have the most amazing friends (we were going to stay with them for Passover) who have a basement apartment in their home and will have our boy in a flash. There are no words to say how much it calms us as we sit thousands of miles away from our son, whilst the world goes crazy, knowing he will have family to look after him.

stay safe, healthy and sane everyone, we will overcome this thing, we have to
