She is holding up OK but reports that she is very isolated and cannot leave her apartment due to concerns about the Coronavirus and limited transportation. Her grandson and his girlfriend are helping her with the necessities but she is interested in staying occupied. In particular, she would like supplies for sewing masks that she can produce herself with her old sewing machine. She might need someone (of course young and not at risk for contracting the virus) to help her set up her sewing machine. I explained that I would reach out to people and have a follow up conversation on Wednesday.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Bernie is still very interested in being as active in the community as she possibly can and would like people to stay in touch.
