CNN

My hubby is a bit of a CNN junkie. Last night, he had on Chris Cuomo's show; Cuomo has tested positive for COVID-19 and is broadcasting from his basement.. say what you will about CNN, but this show is really interesting right now.

(Sidenote: the witty banter between Cuomo and his NY Governor brother Andrew Cuomo is worth the price of admission.)

Last night, Cuomo featured the story of a New Jersey ER physician who died from the coronavirus. One of his guests was the heartbroken husband of that physician. It was so tragic to watch.

But Cuomo said something that I wholeheartedly believe - sometimes it is so important to witness other people's grief - to allow the grief space and witness it's enormity.

Sadly, I think that in the weeks to come many of us will have this opportunity.
