Thank you for listening to this edition of the Call of the Day.

Be sure to listen to my program Monday through Friday now heard on Sirius XM Triumph 2011.

Jane, welcome to the program.

Hi Dr. Laura, thank you for taking my call. It's an honor and pleasure to speak with you.

Thank you. What's happening?

First I want to let you know that I am. One has been a 38-year-sgrove friend.

Yay. Yes. And also for Christmas we purchased some soap for our friends and our kids.

That was smart. That was good.

The reason I'm calling today is recently my dad helped us decline and he has elected to go

into assisted living and he was living upstate about five hours from me. He lost his wife

earlier this year and the reason I'm calling is our grandson who's six. I picked him up from

school about four days a week and he's gone with me to visit my dad and my husband is a little

concerned about once my dad's health starts to decline about whether or not our gransions

should be around or do. Yes he should. He needs to learn about life and compassion absolutely.

But let me ask you something. You have a six-year-old going to school during the pandemic and

your father is an assisted living and you're allowed to visit in the pandemic. This is all new to me.

Well we live in a very small town and we don't have we have under five cases in our county

and he goes to a private Christian school. He had 10 kids.

Private Christians get COVID. No no I agree with that but it's a small school and that the

assisted living is porch visits, math, six feet away. Yes. For the duration of your dad being

elucid of course the kid should be there. It'll cheer up dad and he needs the connection with

grandpa. You're going to take a quick time out and then back with the conclusion of this call.
