Still trying to catch up

[appomattoxco]

I didn't catch up with all that happened before the pandemic hit here. February was pretty awful for my Trek friends. A dear friend of mine ive known for 30 years in Starfleet died of liver cancer. He had just learned of it after getting his gallbladder out a month ago.John was my first officer in the group for many years before he moved

Oh jeez, honey! Are you sheltering in place? Is someone bringing you groceries? Can you get them delivered?

Also, please accept my condolences.

[appomattoxco]

Im really good here in that respect. Delivery is simple here. And if my family ever were to forget me the neighbors are nosy here they will get to me before the cats eat my face lol. Sheltering in place myself though this city isn't taking it all very seriously because its more or less owned by Jerry Falwell Jr.

How are you? Do you have what you need are ypu healthy? Is it spring there yet?

[desdemonaspace]

I've had a cough for about ten days, but no other symptoms. I think it's just a cough.

Yeah, I stopped shopping and started having stuff delivered. I took this seriously earl March, when it got bad in Washington state. I think I've been holed up for almost a month.

Hope you feel better soon
It wouldnt surprise me if this get very bad here because some big churches are still meeting LU campus is still open.

[desdemonaspace]

I'm so sorry, honey. Yes, I think it's going to get very bad. Here, too.

Please keep in touch. You have my email address?

That is scarily stupid - some American Christians are very weird people - considering they're the ones who invented televangelism you would think they'd be happy to do telechurch like the rest of us :P

See, you're comfused about who thier real god is. When people stay home they dont get as much money.

[curiouswombat]

Yes - I have to say that thought crossed my mind...

then I thought 'surely they make everyone pay by direct debit?' :P

[missmurchison]

I'm sorry for your losses.

I've been following that mess at Liberty U. So glad you're staying in and staying safe. It's so selfish of Falwell to take actions that will overwhelm the local healthcare system.

[appomattoxco]

Now he's saying that they only welcomed back international students with nowhere else to go. Why they had to do this when the other 4 colleges nearby didn't only God knows.

Hope you are well and staying safe.
