    phew... You guys should listen to some of the webinars I have about what we are going to be looking at when we reopen our dental offices. It's daunting what some are talking about.

    We do. I saw a few extra pounds here and there but I’m not fitting into my 1969 band jacket either. :eek:

    A very good friend of mine, David Talaga, lost his mother tonight to COVID19. She had been undergoing the same treatments that I was at the same time I was. She began to show signs of it, but they weren't sure. He told me that even getting put on the gurney, she was full of spirit and humor. 24 hours later, she was dead.

    They are in northern NJ, so there will not be the funeral that she deserves. Instead, I think they'll try to have a celebration of life type of thing in the summer when this blows over, if this blows over. I can't imagine losing my mother and I check on her daily for just this very reason. I want her to know she's loved and that someone cares/and is looking out. It can end just that quick.

    My friend is a professor of Theoretical Mathematics at Montclair State in New Jersey. They were going to offer him some time off, but from what? He's already working from home. This is just dark times and I look forward to the day the sun shines bright again.

    Stu, the third twirler from the left is Marin Parker. I've known her since she was a toddler. I think she'll be a junior this year at Purdue.

    Corey, sorry to hear about your friend's Mom. This thing will touch most of us. My friend and neighbor just lost his cousin. Another acquaintance of mine appears to have survived a prolonged ventilator time. And this from not exactly a hot spot.

    "Corey, sorry to hear about your friend's Mom. This thing will touch most of us. My friend and neighbor just lost his cousin. Another acquaintance of mine appears to have survived a prolonged ventilator time. And this from not exactly a hot spot."

    So this is basically the norm right now..... and it's tragic for all concerned.

    My question for you here is how many will go forth on May 1st or whatever date Trump's Economic Council to be announced this Tuesday recommends for the country if the virus continues but not at peak levels because of mitigation efforts?
