    Hi Jenny(: just wanted to reach out and let you know how much you have influenced and positively impacted my life. I found out I was pregnant during my first year of dental school... unexpectedly 🤪 of course I was super happy but at the same time I was SO OVERWHELMED and discouraged. Most people in my life told me I would have to drop out. I didnt know what to do... and I found your videos. Just watching your journey and seeing how you were able to do it and persevere gave me hope I could do it too and encouraged me to keep going. Now my son is two years old and I will be graduating in May ❤️ there were A LOT of failures and bumps along the way... but in the end we are almost there!! So thank you Jenny for helping and inspiring me so much.

    Wyatt is becoming quite the young man. Amazing how fast the kiddos grow. Mine is four and some change. Actually chuckled when London engaged the camera at 8:26 .
    Sometimes it's good to turn the news off. With the pandemic and the negativity in the White House, it's upsetting. Hoping in the next ten days things will be better. Looks like Biden will enact the Defense Production Act. Hope this will help with vaccine availability and PPE.
    Glad you're choosing to spend time with the family. You really have your priorities straight. Shower the kids and Stan with love every chance you get! You've set it up to where work will always be there when you want/need it. Be proud of yourself and enjoy all that you've worked for.
    Regarding the vaccine, what are your thoughts on being the only one vaccinated against COVID in the household? I'm still taking precautions at home as to not expose anyone. Basically nothing changes in terms of my behavior. The vaccine rollout is frustratingly slow. People are dying, and things are the worst they've been. No one seems to take the shelter-in-place or stay at home orders seriously anymore. I realize people need to work in order to pay bills and put food on the table, but there are safer ways to do this without all the collateral damage! /rant off. ;)
    Night off. Time for some coffee and to do some work around our place. Stay safe!

    • @drjennale
      @drjennale  4 года назад +1

      I think the issue with vaccine distribution is at the state level. There just isn't enough funding to roll out vaccines on this large of a scale. I am hoping that would change in the near future.
      I feel some relief even though I'm the only who got the vaccine in my household. Given that I'm the one with the most exposure. But same as you Matt, precautions are still the same. We go out once a week to get our groceries, not much socially distant out door activities currently because it has been cold and raining the last few weeks. Otherwise, we have been home.
      It is going to be a rough few weeks in the hospital seeing the surge from the holiday gatherings. It is frustrating and heartbreaking to see because it didn't have to get this bad. Stay safe my friend ❤️

      Hi Bree! The vaccines are not approved for kids yet because kids weren’t included in the study. But! Trials are already underway for both Pfizer and Moderna. We should have data soon.

    • @drjennale
      @drjennale  4 года назад

      The vaccine is 95% effective so there is still a chance we can catch SARS-CoV2 until we are able to reach herd immunity (70-90% immunity in the community). That’s why we still urge people to wear mask and socially distant. That being said, if everyone in my family was vaccinated, I would feel a little safer to travel to lower risk areas.
