I have turned into such a crybaby.

I am rarely watching the news these days, but today I caught a glimpse of the pilot boats slowly guiding the Mercy hospital ship into the LA Harbor. It has 1000 beds and 12 fully equipped OR’s. It wasn’t meant for this. It will keep on-shore beds available for virus victims.

It’s something about those big red crosses.

When I was a little girl, “holocaust”meant any destruction or slaughter on a mass scale. It had a little “h” and we mostly thought of “the bomb.” Then “Holocaust” got a capitol “H” and referred to a specific slaughter. I think we now have another one with a capital “H.”

Kyrie eleison.
