Pandemic effect

A front liner family friend went home to the province yesterday to pay visit to his grandma who died days ago. And due to the pandemic, when neighbors saw him, they immediately stay away from him and the saddest part is that he was not able to touch his wife and kids. He just took a photo and video of them while waving and blowing kisses to him inside the car. As a mother, that could have been so painful for me; like so close yet so far.

@bbghitte Oh, I see. It must be difficult for him to be away from his family.

You're right. It's just sad that we have to endure months more before we can hug and be united with out loved ones.

@bbghitte People are also scared naturally. But we can just do air hugs for now.
