It is bitterswwet though, as Chicago just limited gatherings for weddings to 10 people for the next 30 days. That means Shaun and Melanie can't have their wedding as planned. I feel awful for them to be disapointed, but also feel like it is probably a lot safer. I am sad that we won't yet be able to see my family due to covid. I also found out that someone close to me, despite all their precations and using proper PPE in their job, tested positive and is sick with covid. Its scary how, even when you do everything right, there is still a risk. I'm not overly worried, but of course since our bubble just got so much bigger the last few days, I'm going to be nervous for the next 2 weeks and hoping/praying that no one gets sick, and that we didn't catch anything.
What is interesting is that I'm not sure, even if covid was not here, if I could have attended something in a goup of 25 at this point post transplant. So I may have needed to be in a mask and not stayed for dinner anyways.
Back to work tomorrow, but wishing I could take a day off. I have clinic on Tuesday, and we usually get there early, so planning to have the rest of the day be a rest day. Excited to sleep in our own bed tonight, and see the puppy in the morning. Also, Peter's cousin Joe and his wife Angie had a little girl on Friday who is needing a little time in the NICU before she can go home. She is getting better and it isn't too serious, but prayers for Cara-June would be appreciated.
Stay safe. Wear your mask. I know this probably sounds hypocritical given our recent trip, but now really is the time to be tightening your social circles, staying home, and being extra careful.
