She hasn't lost a semester, she is doing finals now online. Her older brother is doing co-op with an engineering firm in kim city before starting his last year of school in September. They are concerned of course but there isn't much they can do about it.
I hope that when you shuffle off this mortal coil (hopefully not any time soon), you're leaving her something more than just a pickle dish or some needlepoint crap that your mom made.
I love you, wilber, but I'm not sure that you old fuckers fully appreciate what's being given up for you right now.
