lemondrop sending love. That truly is a miracle that she got to the hospital and was able to get treated. That’s a really scary condition. I don’t think that is dumb at all to send something for the kids. They would appreciate knowing people are thinking of them during this time. They are probably full of emotions.

lemondrop, I dont think sending cookies for the kids is dumb, its thoughtful. We have an employee who was positive and so was his wife, hers turned into pnuemonia, they have 3 young kids, we sent dinner over one night. I know its super hot but spoonful of comfort will send yummy soups and fixings.

I think sending the kids something is a wonderful idea. I'm sure they would appreciate it.

lemondrop, oh wow, just read your update. I can't even imagine not being allowed into the ICU. Being with my H was about the only thing that made the experience bearable. We had friends drop off dinners, and honestly that was really helpful since I didn't feel like cooking. I think any kind of gesture is nice.

Standard protocol is to burn papers, so that's not surprising. I'm sure there was spying and illegal activities... but I'm sure it's happening at other Chinese embassies too. Not sure why that one was targeted.

Thanks all. I sent a big Cheryl's Cookies box. Hopefully a little sugar brings them a little joy in such a terrible time

Prayers for her and her family lemondrop. I hope she gets well soon and is able to go home. It must be so hard to be separated at a time like this.

Not sure why that one was targeted. thank you. It's hard to sift through the news sometimes. And by sometimes I mean all the time

That is batty. 1) assuming you need a second job to survive, 2) some of those costs are ridiculous ($20/mo for insurance?!, $600 rent?!), 3) one reply pointed out that food isn’t accounted for So that must be the $100 “other”. Who the hell can feed themselves for $100/mo?! Even on ramen! Where is daycare on this list? Or aftercare for school kids, for when you're working 60 hours a week? Or a nanny? Are nannies for rich people accepting $100 a month? If so, I need one of those. . Oh “don’t have Kids if you can’t afford them” but don’t you dare think you can have birth control or reproductive rights!”

Sending positive thoughts lemondrop! That is scary. Pdq: MIL was supposed to have open heart surgery in April that has been pushed back due to Covid. That is really scary to hear about.
