Mammabear:
I am fortunate to not be in active treatment so not at high risk. Medium risk my onc said as I am still recovering.
I do have scans this month and continue to have ongoing treatments (immuno therapy) but they don't put me at high risk.
For my scans I will wear a mask and not touch my face and wash my hands just like I did when I went out during active treatment.
Otherwise we are so used to this social isolation having recently finished active treatment that it seems normal.
Walking the dog. Working from home. Living my best life with cancer during a pandemic.

I am staying isolated. My wife and I are virtually quarantined. My kids and granddaughter visit and we see them outside from 10+ ft separation.

If you have cancer, you are at a higher risk for more serious outcomes of COVID-19. Cancer is considered an underlying medical condition. And some cancer treatments, such as surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy, can weaken your immune system, making it harder for you to fight infections.

Thanks for sharing.
As I read your post I imagined your granddaughter running towards you for a hug when things go back to normal. Seeing each other's faces helps. Keep well!
