Was that nursing home not in Cavan?
Truthfully, itâll hardly matter to them. People need to know and realise the harsh realities here. Or else theyâre dying for nothing.
It fucking will if theyâre scared shitless for the time theyâve left
I thought someone said Kilkenny
They already are.

People need to be scared to take the advice seriously. Any complacency at all will make this an awful lot worse.
Auld people are as bad if not worse than anyone for not following the guidelines

The elderly have been taking this seriously since this kicked off in my view.

Sorry. I stand corrected.
An acquaintance of mine mother died there a week ago. In a car accident. He posted on facebook that they really took solace from the book of condolences on rip.ie âŚwhich I never knew existed. Id a look at it and there was 500+ messages there most of which personalised how they knew his mother and a nice memory of her. A nice thing to have. Assume people dont do that if there is a funeral to attend

Id guessed that⌠Doesnât make it any better
Most people take it seriously. But they need to be reminded to keep doing so. If ten per cent donât then thereâs a price to pay and if that ten per cent are older that price is heavier

And do you think worrying about lying in a temporary morgue will make the situation better or worse for their anxiety

If it was an outbreak in one specific home, while obviously horribly tragic, it makes the overall situation somewhat better.

In the journey to the light,
the dark moments
should not threaten.
Belief
requires
that you hold steady.
Bend, if you will,
with the wind.
The tree is your teacher,
roots at once
more firm
from experience
in the soil
made fragile.
Your gentle dew will come
and a stirring
of power
to go on
towards the space
of sharing.
In the misery of the I,
in rage,
it is easy to cry out
against all others
but to weaken
is to die
in the misery of knowing
the journey abandoned
towards the sharing
of all human hope
and cries
is the loss
of all we know
of the divine
reclaimed
for our shared
humanity.
Hold firm.
Take care.
Come home
together.
