Things That Have Changed

In 1918 a pandemic struck the world.  Masks were required to go certain places.
In 2019 a pandemic struck the world. Masks are required when you leave your house.

In the 1930s my Great Aunt had strep throat.  The only way she could have lived was to have someone donate blood to her that had beaten or overcome strep throat.
In 2020 hospitals are asking for plasma donations from people that have beaten the Covid-19.

Many scientists are looking for cures for this new Pandemic know as Coronavirus.  People are staying at home from work and school.  Social hour is on line rather than at a restaurant.

We need to learn the history of what has happened so we do not have a reoccurrence of this Pandemic.

If we go back to business same as normal too fast we may cause this disease to spread even more.

God bless the scientists that are in search of a cure.  The entire world is searching.

Tomorrow is Sunday.  Masses and services will be on line.

God bless everyone and we pray that a cure will be found in the near future.

Change Is Coming

We have had several things that have been restricted just in this month.  Visiting at hospitals, nursing homes, in patient facilities and prisons have been very limited.  College age students have been sent home and the rest of the schools have been switched to on line learning.

We have not heard that there are restrictions going between states but it looks like the tides might be turning that way. We are experiencing spring time here but in times where there is turmoil it is always a fear that an enemy might strike.  Natural disasters have been plenty in the past including wildfires, volcanoes erupting, earthquakes, hurricanes and tornadoes.

Our hospitals, ambulances, police and the military are all protecting us.  Our job is to protect our children, family, friends and strangers.  Each one of us is called to do our duty every day.

God bless everyone!
