Travel safely, everyone. The Wushan coronavirus respiratory disease is a contagious disease that moves from one country to another in this modern era of air transportation!

Take safety precautions and if the travel is not important, choose to cancel it and remain at home.

Anyway, sharing the following info:

A PERSON COULD BE AT RISK IF THEY HAVE:

👉- Fever and symptoms of lower respiratory illness, such as coughing or difficulty breathing, after traveling to Wuhan or having close contact with someone who was ill and is now under investigation for the virus in the past two weeks.

👉- Fever or symptoms of lower respiratory illness after having close contact in the past two weeks with someone who's been confirmed to have the virus.

The CDC defined "close contact" as being within about 6 feet (1.8 m) "or within the room or care area" of a person with the coronavirus for a prolonged period without appropriate protective clothing, or "having direct contact with infectious secretions" of a person with the virus without protective clothing.

WHO ARE MOST AT RISK?

👉 Coronaviruses like 2019-nCoV are particularly dangerous for people who have weaker immune systems, like young children and older adults.

👉 There are no vaccines to protect people from contracting a coronavirus. Pets are also at risk of catching coronaviruses, which can lead to disease and even death.

HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF:

Here are the CDC's and other healthcare experts' suggestions for how to protect yourself from the virus while travelling:

👉 Try to avoid contact with people who display symptoms similar to those of pneumonia or the common cold, like coughing or a runny nose.

👉 Don't touch your eyes, nose, or mouth with unwashed hands.

👉 Wash your hands frequently with soap and water, and scrub for at least 20 seconds.

👉 Use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer when possible.

👉 Avoid animals and animal markets.

A Touching Christmas Story

I hurried into the local department store to grab some last minute Christmas gifts. I looked at all the people and grumbled to myself. I would be in here forever and I just had so much to do. Christmas was beginning to become such a drag. I kinda wished that I could just sleep through Christmas. But I hurried the best I could through all the people to the toy department. Once again I kind of mumbled to myself at the prices of all these toys. And wondered if the grandkids would even play with them.

I found myself in the doll aisle. Out of the corner of my eye I saw a little boy about 5 holding a lovely doll. He kept touching her hair and he held her so gently. I could not seem to help myself. I just kept looking over at the little boy and wondered who the doll was for. I watched him turn to a woman and he called his aunt by name and said, "Are you sure I don't have enough money" She replied a bit impatiently, "You know that you don't have enough money for it. The aunt told the little boy not to go anywhere that she had to go get some other things and would be back in a few minutes. And then she left the aisle. The boy continued to hold the doll.

After a bit I asked the boy who the doll was for. He said, "It is the doll my sister wanted so badly for Christmas. She just knew that Santa would bring it." I told him that maybe Santa was going to bring it. He said "No, Santa can't go where my sister is...I have to give the doll to my Momma to take to her". I asked him where his sister was.

He looked at me with the saddest eyes and said "She has gone to be with Jesus". My Daddy says that Momma is going to have to go be with her. My heart nearly stopped beating.

Then the boy looked at me again and said, "I told my Daddy to tell Momma not to go yet. I told him to tell her to wait till I got back from the store". Then he asked me if I wanted to see his picture. I told him I would love to. He pulled out some pictures he'd had taken at the front of the store. He said "I want my Momma to take this with her so she don't ever forget me." "I love my Momma so very much and I wish she did not have to leave me". "But Daddy says she will need to be with my sister."

I saw that the little boy had lowered his head and had grown so very quiet. While he was not looking I reached into my purse and pulled out a handful of bills. I asked the little boy, "Shall we count that money one more time?" He grew excited and said "Yes, I just know it has to be enough". So I slipped my money in with his and we began to count it.

Of course it was plenty for the doll. He softly said, "Thank you Jesus for giving me enough money." Then the boy said "I just asked Jesus to give me enough money to buy this doll so Momma can take it with her to give to my sister." "And he heard my prayer". "I wanted to ask him for enough to buy my Momma a white rose, but I didn't ask him, but he gave me enough to buy the doll and a rose for my Momma."

"She loves white roses so very very much".

In a few minutes the aunt came back and I wheeled my cart away. I could not keep from thinking about the little boy as I finished my shopping in a totally different spirit than when I had started. And I kept remembering a story I had seen in the newspaper several days earlier about a drunk driver hitting a car and killing a little girl and the Mother was in serious condition. The family was deciding on rather to remove the life support. Now surely this little boy did not belong with that story.

Two days later I read in the paper where the family had disconnected the life support and the young woman had died. I could not forget the little boy and just kept wondering if the two were somehow connected. Later that day, I could not help myself and I went out and bought some white roses and took them to the funeral home where the young woman was. And there she was holding a lovely white rose, the beautiful doll, and the picture of the little boy in the store.

I left there in tears, my life changed forever. The love that little boy had for his little sister and his mother was overwhelming. And in a split second a drunk driver had ripped the life of that little boy to pieces. "We make a living by what we get; We make a life by what we give."

"You have to be always drunk. That's all there is to it—it's the only way. So as not to feel the horrible burden of time that breaks your back and bends you to the earth, you have to be continually drunk.

But on what? Wine, poetry or virtue, as you wish. But be drunk.

And if sometimes, on the steps of a palace or the green grass of a ditch, in the mournful solitude of your room, you wake again, drunkenness already diminishing or gone, ask the wind, the wave, the star, the bird, the clock, everything that is flying, everything that is groaning, everything that is rolling, everything that is singing, everything that is speaking. . .ask what time it is and wind, wave, star, bird, clock will answer you: "It is time to be drunk! So as not to be the martyred slaves of time, be drunk, be continually drunk! On wine, on poetry or on virtue as you wish."

- Charles Baudelaire, 1821-1867

GIVE:

PEACE
May our actions
and our words
be a reminder
in the chaos of things
that even while we wait
there is grace
and freedom
to trust
hope,
and breathe.

HARMONY
May we be the ones
who remind others
of the beautiful music
we can make
when we bring
our voices together.

LOVE
There are many ways to give love,
but it does not have to overwhelm us.
Let us give
friendship
compassion
appreciation
closeness
care
…and let the list go on and on!
Let us fill these things with the gift of love.

BELONGING
May we choose
to be the ones
who make space
at the table
for others.

HOPE
May we be the ones
who remind others
that “maybe, after everything I’ve been through
there is still good in this world.”
⠀
WARMTH
In a world
that often feels so cold
to so many,
may we choose
to be the ones
to give kindness to those
who may not have
many reminders
that kindness still exists.

COMMUNITY
Far too many people
will feel lonely tonight.
Perhaps we can be the ones
who can show
what family looks like.

EMPATHY
“Let me hold the door for you.
I may have never walked in your shoes,
but I can see your soles are worn
your strength is torn
under the weight of a story
I have never lived before.
Let me hold the door for you
it is the least I can do.”
⠀
SUPPORT
May we be
the shoulders
the hands
the ears
ever-reminding
one another:
“You are not alone here.”
⠀
TIME
Time is something
we can never
get back,
so when we give time
to one another,
It is the gift
that truly lasts.

SPACE
Let us make room
for one another’s presence,
stories,
and laughter,
let our moments together
be a reminder:
“We need you here.
You matter.”
⠀
FUN
May we be the ones
who make room for play,
adventure, and
unapologetic, childlike joy.
May we dare to be excited.
May we dare to make noise.

Giving is not about a few people saving everyone else but about showing one another what Love looks like. This may seem impossible amidst despair and fear, but let us continue to remind one another “you belong here” in whatever way we can. You and I need this and others, too.
