I have certainly engaged in the struggle to find a balance in my new life. I am enraged with the changes I see in the world. I am constantly saying "I can't believe this" at the newest offence when nothing should surprise me anymore. I have several like minded children, grandchildren, and a few close friends so I have the social interactions I need but still turn to substack for the sense of community it offers. Knowing this small fellowship of people who come from differing backgrounds of faith, science, and political ideology has confirmed to me that the fight is worth having even though I suspect the loss is inevitable. Words that ground us in what matters in life are appreciated during times when the losses add up. Thank you.

The Tom Hanks example is interesting. He is an older diabetic and yet he did fine with Covid. I actually felt at that point that WELL-MANAGED preexisting conditions were not a huge risk factor, as opposed to unmanaged. It would be interesting to know what early therapies he received at that time. I’m sure he took SOMETHING. My guess? HCQ or Ivermectin.

I feel sad seeing young people doing the government's bidding.
