Daily diaries of those who are self-isolating due to CoronavirusHi Lillypig. I’m new to the group too & I can sympathize with you about finding a balance between staying isolated for your health and supporting family. I also take care of grandchildren & will miss the daily contact with them. Fortunately, there are other family members who will step in to help with childcare. I’m trying not to think about this isolation lasting for months but plan to take it a day at a time, I plan to keep in touch with family and friends with group texts. I also think it’s important for me to have a schedule, turn off the TV, read more, get outside & find a way to have some peace in these hard times. It’s helpful to know that there are so many others of us in the same situation who are learning to cope as best we can.ViewDate:

Daily diaries of those who are self-isolating due to CoronavirusHi everyone. This is the first time I have ever been in a chat room but I’m glad I’ve found you. I joined because I want to hear how other seniors are coping with “sheltering in place.” I am a widow and live by myself. I usually take care of 2 grandchildren & am fortunate to have close relationships with them and with my 2 daughters who all live nearby. However, because I have health issues, I’ve been isolating at home for a week in hopes of not getting the Coronavirus. How are others in this group coping with being suddenly isolated?
