Mr Trimble, It’s past time for all of us to rise to the occasion and do something positive. My wife and I had a similar conversation as you had with your wife. It’s time to get over the panic and do something proactive to make this situation better. My wife is a seamstress, an avid quilter, and like most quilter’s she has a huge supply of fabric. She decided to go online to find out how to sew face masks for our first responders. She found a youtube video and now she is already up in her sewing room doing something to help lessen the shortage of masks.

I have decided to contact my nearest neighbors, to check on how they are doing, find out if there anything they need, and is there anything they can share. I will widen my circle of contact and if I find a neighbor in need perhaps I can pair them with a neighbor who has a surplus. We can start conversations and be the catalyst to help our neighbors overcome the shortages. By doing this, I am certain we will become closer to our neighbors, while still practicing social distancing.

Of course, the ultimately goal is to beat coronavirus! But, we can’t allow social distancing to separate us from our friends.
