COVID-19 Check-in Thread

[Inquisitive Raven]

I'm alive and thinking I need something like this for my nearest kin. It'll probably be something like a broadcast email. My mom, sister, and I all live hours apart, and there's a paternal aunt that we keep in regular contact with who isn't particularly near any of us.

If anyone has any suggestions for an alternative to the aforementioned broadcast email, I'd love to find out about it.

If everybody in the group has a smartphone, you should be able to set up a group text-message chat. I have one with both iPhone and Android participants in my family.

Ah, there's the rub. While my sister and I have smartphones, my mom does not and is unlikely to get one anytime soon, and my aunt didn't have one the last time I checked although she was dithering over getting one.
