(34,661 posts)You did great. Just had that call with our Son as well as my Spouses BIL's Niece both in Southern Minnesota. The BIL in in a Nursing Home because of his deteriorating health and needs 24 hour supervision. BTW,four workers at that facility are Covid Positive as of last Monday and Walz sent in the Guard Medical team to test all the Residents. As of yesterday,one Resident tested Positive and is Isolated waiting for a Hospital Bed either Twin Cities or Sioux Falls.
As for the Son,well,the Granddaughters School System in St Peter had 175 Students in home quarantine as of last Monday. Like you,no way going to fly,especially out of Vegas. No way to drive,staying in Motels in Colorado Nebraska or South Dakota is not a recipe for healthy living. Plus driving I-70 is not a pleasant trip in November or December. Been there and done that more than once.
Would be nice to spend time with the BIL knowing full well this could be his last Winter.
