Help my high-risk mom avoid her grocery job.

Many of you may know I have a mom. Some of you may know her name is Randee. It’s likely over the years she’s called your house a number of times while we were hanging out. She likes to call…a lot.
What you may not know is that my mom has been working at Whole Foods for about a year. The job is wonderful, and she is beyond grateful to have it. And, the job is currently a major point of stress for her.
Grocery stores are one of the very few industries that are not closed down. My mom is in her 70's and has Asthma. She is surrounded by people the entire time she is at work. She works in the wellness department, so it's extra bananas.
Whole Foods/Amazon has systems in place to support those infected with the virus, but no preventative measures for those at high risk, like my mom.
Don't get it twisted, My mom is not feeble, she’s a badass, and yet I’m still super worried about her. And I am not even a worrier. It must skip a generation.
All I want is for her to be able to stay home, and lockdown for a bit like so many of us have.
I am calling upon my community for some support. She has not asked me to do this, but in brainstorming some ways of supporting her while I’m several states away, this seemed like a logical step.
Stay safe out there.
Stay sane in there.
Much love,
-Adam
