Haileybug, I honestly appreciate that the admins on the site make decisions to move a lot of questions that are, in fact, general discussion questions, to "Discussions". It shows that they are active and monitoring the site. Neiza is a new poster, and may be doing a research paper, or some such; has given us no profile at all. Question is very interesting one, but it isn't about AgingCare, really~ that is to say individual caregivers giving care to individuals, and having questions regarding that. I seldom go to discussions at all. I think when questions have nothing to do with a real care questions for and about a real person. but are rather seeking general information, it is good when the question is moved to a place the admins feel it belongs. Just my opinion.
Seniors as in???? 60’s and still working full time pre COVID-19 70’s and retired but healthy & on the Pfizer Covid vaccine trial 80’s and a merry old rooster widower 90’s and redoing your pallbearer list as yet another one has died
Nothing much, actually. After the initial 'lock down' was over, I went right back to life as usual, for the most part, but forced to wear a mask while shopping. Having window visits with my mother in Memory Care ALF, but inside visits will resume shortly. Still seeing my children and step children, husband still working full time............not living in fear and hoping to have no further shortages on items due to people hoarding for no good reason.
Groceries. Were being hoarded so the supermarkets cancelled all online & collect or home deliveries. Eventually had these restored but this forced people INTO shoping in person.
Masks. Necessary but makes communication for hearing impaired hard, lipreading impossible.
Home maintenance. No non urgent repairs, including lawns so now knee high unable to safely use grasses areas.
Social isolation. Keeping away from family & friends.
But.
My many have mastered video calls.
People are getting a lot more things delivered. Saying this is quite convenient, I'll keep this up.
People have been forced to live more local but they seem to be adapting. I see neighbours talking more on my daily walks. Many walking to their closest shops. Many more bike riding & jogging.
Seen a lot of grey haired folk on shiny new bikes, shiny helmets & fleuro safety vests.
Neiza, you are new to the site, which is for carers to help each other. This seems more like a research question. It’s a complicated issue, people may not bother to answer unless you provide reasons for the question.
