I have been worried about whether I would be treated in the event I got sick with the coronavirus. Finally I decided that information, good or bad, was better than not know. After an email exchange with my nephrology team, I was assured that having a kidney transplant and being immunosuppressed would not prevent me from being treated. I am feeling much lighter, mood-wise, though the trick is still keeping from getting sick in the first place.

Governor Baker proposed a list of “essential businesses” that can stay open.  It seems as though he barely eliminated any. The list of places that need to close would be considerably shorter.  Honestly, if I see one more post about hoping that Dunkin Donuts stays open so they can get their coffee, I will scream. Is everyone too lazy to buy ground coffee or K-cups and make their own? I get that coffee is a life-giving elixer, but I would think people can make a contingency plan!
