Returning those acts of kindness

To the Times:

The story by Peg DeGrassa about Nathan Berger, a 4-year old asking his mother, Annamaria, to make cookies so he could thank nurses at CrozerChester Medical Center deserves our commendation. Annamaria must be immensely proud as we all are for Nathan’s singular act of kindness to our health care workers. You see, kindness is contagious. As busy as our nurses are during this period while battling war-like conditions to save lives, they found time to return kindness by sending a “thank you” video to Nathan.

These acts of kindness mean so much to one another but not just in desperate times like we are experiencing now. Our world would be much better if we take time to show love, care for each other and support one another. I see random of acts of kindness and read stories each day in my community about ordinary people trying to make a difference in people’s lives. It is this spirit

that will make us stronger and united after COVID-19.

When all is over, we will come together and celebrate everyone who played a part to beat COVID-19 and to celebrate Nathan, Annamaria and BethAnn McClure and her colleagues, Peg and many more. It will not just be a Delco affair. It will be our state and country coming together and celebrating after tough times. For now, let us continue to fight together against COVID-19, showcase these acts of kindness that not only bring a smile but underscore our shared humanity.

Letters to the Editor, 639S. Chester Road Swarthmore, PA 19081 focused on countering a global pandemic and keeping our children healthy and safe in the midst of this crisis.

But we will get past this – our children our counting on us. In the days and weeks ahead, we’ll remain vigilant on the priorities that are vital to the health and safety of our families. Pennsylvania’s air pollution has made its residents more vulnerable and less resilient to disease and in a weakened position to fight diseases. Polluters should never get a free pass on cleaning up our air and making our communities stronger.

If there’s one thing moms know, it’s how to multitask. From our kitchen tables, we’re talking on text and in virtual groups so that the important business of reducing air pollution, such as emissions of carbon, continues. Call it nap time activism and an invitation to parents across the commonwealth to join us
