Hi fellow quarantiners,

My father passed away yesterday morning..July 14th

I've been avoiding telling people about him being in hospice which is
explained Malone

It's been very challenging since he entered hospice to have people tell me
I should fly out there or I should have flown out there.....

So I just want to make it clear that it was not an easy decision to stay
here.... And I'm going to explain the decision in case you have to make a
similar decision before the  virus goes away

Here are some of the reasons I had to decide against travel:

-- If I had gone out there I would have needed to quarantine for 14 days
because I did not want to put my 90 year old mother in jeopardy.
--so, If had flown out there I would have been in quarantine and missed
talking to him before he passed away
--flying really isn't safe right now ..I'm not going to go into the
details...but trust me my niece works at the CDC
--the funeral homes mortuaries etc are very limited in how many people can
come visit and there is a two week wait for a cremation....( Which means I
would have had to fly back before the burial)

And here is a very surprising unknown:

The transformer outside my house was hit by lightning (warriors were
sparking and up the road at least a quarter of a mile) and I had to
evacuate .....
if I had been in California, there's a good chance the house would have
burned down and there would have been no one to call inthe fire  since

Summary

A storyteller recently told about going to see her dad before he died and I
almost shut the zoom concert  off because it was too painful ...but then
she mentioned her brother whose wife was giving birth and couldn't come to
be with her father......It was at that moment I felt peace in my heart with
my decision because there are a million different reasons why we can't
sometimes be with the person we love at the end.....

Thank you for reading this (if you did) and for understanding....
My prayer and hope is that you never have to make a decision like this
...and that if you do people do not question you

Be safe... be healthy

With love

Erin Johnston

Thank you Sarah Beth

My internet has been down for a few days and I'm not sure if it'll be down
as well on that day I'm wondering if there's a way to phone call into the
session?

I'm also looking for libraries nearby where I can sit next to their Wi-Fi

I propose we have our next Story Coaching on Sunday July 16, 2- 4 pm.

Our Doodle poll suggests that July 16 will accommodate the most tellers who
can definitely make it (Erin, Sarah Beth, Paul, and Elizabeth). July 26 has
the most responses (Erin, Paul, and Elizabeth can definitely make it; Coral
and Sarah Beth are maybes).  However, Coral has said she thinks it quite
likely she won't attend in July, I'm inclined to say we should go with July
16. However, I am open to hearing other opinions or if situations/calendars
have changed for anyone.
