While my mother is fairly healthy, she does need some assistance with minor issues (ie: filing taxes and government applications, etc). Between my sister and I, we visit mom 3-4 times a year. We have been able to care for all the issues without any problem.

Except now.....

I usually go in February-March of every year. I managed to go this year and get back to Japan just days before the lockdown started. Now we are trying to plan for the future. Would things be open again by February? Heck, could the borders be open and closed again by next February? I'm I being optimistic in hoping I can go visit mom again this autumn or early next year?
