Cherie helps us to recall how people were panic-buying toilet paper and masks regarding shutdown and how people are obsessively washing because of the virus. Cherie reaches out to us to use our time and talents to make masks and donate these to the hospitals. With compassion, Cherie is asking her viewers to make an effort because no one deserves to be on ventilators or sick or dying. Cherie has an amazing talent for giving us much needed reminders of how to put things into proper perspective during this pandemic. You'll want to tune in for these important reminders.
