That's the thing, everything is unknown these days!

So true! Hope you and your family are doing ok. Is Ann having to work more than normal?

Ann is working way less than normal and it's actually starting to be a concern. They have cancelled virtually all elective procedures and currently they are not being overwhelmed by virus patients. In other words, the Medical ICU has been able to handle all of the patients without overflowing into other units. She's worked one shift in the last 3 weeks.

Nobody is getting in car accidents or crashing into trees at the closed ski resorts. Bad for business in the Neuro ICU!

Wow. I guess I figured there’d be a call for extra hands to assist with COVID-19 - perhaps it’s not reached your area yet?
