'My coronavirus prep includes protecting my disabled child' via PostEverything
Empty shelves and signs indicating out of stock items at a grocery store in Kirkland, Wash. on Sunday, March 1, 2020. David Perry is a journalist and senior academic adviser to the history department at the University of Minnesota.Late on Monday afternoon, I swung by a Costco Business Center, which is just like any other Costco, except that you can’t buy liquor, prepared foods or prescription drugs.
I’m the father of an autistic boy with Down syndrome. While he is not medically fragile, his diet is specific enough to the extent we can’t just easily roll with the societal disruptions that coronavirus brings and expect him to cope in the same way a neurotypical kid does. So, I went to Costco. My 13-year-old son starts each day with a bowl of Quaker Maple Brown Sugar oatmeal, then a bowl of Honey Nut Cheerios. At lunch he eats a cup of 2% cottage cheese — the brand here matters less than the texture, but some cottage cheese is too thick or salty. He eats Snyder’s Snaps square pretzels, blueberries of any size or ripeness, five fig bar cookies but not Fig Newtons , and Craisins.
