Hospitals Bar Partners Because of Virus Fears
On a cheerier note, here are some ideas I have come up with to keep myself meaningfully occupied. Please send your ideas to me at: ssskimchee@gmail.com
1. I have started re-writing my midwifery protocols should our county/state be locked down. I have already heard of places that are calling up retired providers to offer their services if needed. If I were pregnant, the last place I would go to deliver would be a hospital under the present circumstances. If a family chose to stay at home instead, and had been isolated for the minimum 15 days, I would consider assisting at low-risk home births.
2. I have called a nearby animal shelter to find out if they are planning to place their animals in foster homes. I would consider fostering or adopting a dog.
3. Every day that I have been isolated at home I have learned a new quilting pattern, reproducing templates from my quilting books and sewing them in miniature, one a day. They are quite challenging, not only because I have never made this particular pattern before but because they are so tiny. Keep the little gray cells challenged!
stay tuned for more. Please send me any of your ideas at ssskimchee@gmail.com
