Feeling free

I’m going to visit and stay with my mom for Mother’s Day because we’re both vaccinated. I can’t believe I even get to say that sentence! I understand that no vaccine is perfect, and nothing is a guarantee. But we’ve done all that is within our power to minimize the risks. That’s all we can do. COVID-19 exists now. It’s a part of our world. I doubt, even if every person on the planet were vaccinated, that we’d hear the last of COVID-19 cases. But life does have to go on. In the same way we diligently get our flu shots every fall and then spend the holidays in close proximity to elderly (i.e. at risk) family members, hoping the shot did its jobs, we can really only treat this the same way—and hope that the government keeps doing its job, implementing policies that protect all citizens.
