I forgot yesterday. I talked to Mom and texted Cathy. Both say she is doing okay, not great, but things that are happening - dizziness, in stability- have a reason or two. Today is a nice day. I tried to get Pearlman to go outside so I could cut his hair, but  he is barely up. He's in my bed again. "Resting". He's killing himself. Slowly but surely.

They say that if more people wore masks, we'd get the virus under control, but some people think they're above it.

• Coronavirus tips: Wearing a face mask is one of the best ways to avoid being infected. The protective equipment can reduce the risk of transmission for both wearers and the people in their vicinity.
• Face masks can reduce the risk of infection by 65% for the wearer, which should be a significant incentive for putting a face mask on whenever you’re going out of the house.
• Combined with social distancing and frequent hand washing, face masks can help you navigate the COVID-19 pandemic more safely.
