I'm scared, haven't left the house for at least 3 weeks and would it not be the worst place to go, a health Center where sick folks go? I know, bad idea. I'll cancel. I'm just a tad freaked. Sorry, just don't want to get a virus and potentially pass it on? I'm okay to tip off the raft whenever 卵亂 It's definately not a life or death sitchy, a mere x ray. Best to you all!! Would you do it?
    You should call them. A friend had a similar appointment, and that had her go in a separate entrance, so she was nowhere near the Covid wards, or the Emergency department. They literally set up a separate entrance and procedures for "other" patients.

    And if it is a "non-urgent" appointment, they may cancel it anyway, depending on the situation on the ground there. A call is definitely in order.

    A client made masks for us. I embellished mine with, what else, a cat.

    Thanks, great advice. I thought they would cancel it but that didn't happen. I thought I was fine but, I kept putting off cancelling it. I threw up this morning, I always do that when I'm freaked .... stupid, I know. Stress makes me vomit 😬 🤢🤤🙄 Then I thought they would charge me for the appt. because I didn't give 48 hrs. notice. They didn't care, my husband actually cancelled it for me because I refused to go 😜 He apparently said I had a cough and a fever so was not up for an X-ray and examination. 🤣😷🙊 Liar, liar, pants on fire 😻 He is definately hired as my secretary! He's easy on the eye as well 👍🏿 Normally I behave like a mature adult, ooooops. 🙈🙈🙈

    I am so sorry that so many people get sick and die because of this dangerous Covid 19...
    Everybody in our family is okay, I am very thankfull for that!
    It's already 6 weeks ago since we last saw our grandson Alexander....
    He is learning so much now....!I'm glad we have WhatsApp,
    !nOur daughter sends us many homevideo's of him.
    The last one was a 3 minutes long video showing Alexander while he was laughing and snickering almost all the time
    He is such a sweet ànd beautiful babyboy!! He wil be turning 10 months old on April 27th!
    I hope I may see him again soon....

    I would love to show some pictures of him, but for some unknown reason I cannot upload any pictures on PT anymore... (???)
    Please go to my Facebook page "Lut Lobeau"
    , where you will find tons of pictures

    That's wonderful, Lut, that you are in your new home now!

    Happy 10-month birthday soon to your grandson Alexander! What fun for you to watch him grow, even if just by WhatsApp right now.
