Our son-in-law suspected that when he didn't smell any chlorine. So, after the kids enjoyed their swim, he brought home a sample for a dip stick test (that's the bottle above) which produced the disappointing result.
This week, before I went in with Haya, we brought a jar of those sticks to test the water. Happily, the right color appeared and we had a terrific one hour session.
Here is Haya 'smiling' while floating - that's the tip of her tongue stuck out. We've had no real smiles from Haya for the past twenty years or so.
If only the other information I'm after were as accessible.
First: The Freedom of Information Department at the Ministry of Welfare still hasn't provided me with the data regarding the names of the institutions where the Covid 19 victims with disabilities lived. They were required to provide the information - they call it "segmentation" - within 30 days.. When that milestone is reached - in this case that was this past Thursday - they are entitled to grant themselves an extension which they've already told me they will do. They said the Ministry needs extra time because it's been "swamped" since the pandemic started with requests for information regarding people with disabilities.
Hmm. Wonder why?
Second: I also would like more information from Aleh about the "grand opening" of their new wing at the Bnei Brak branch. Despite the fanfare, attendant dignitaries (including Minister of Education Yoav Galant) and proud announcement on the Aleh Facebook page, no details about this expansion were supplied. I am curious about the following: How many more lucky children will be institutionalized at this wing? What will their ages be? Is the wing already occupied? I'd like answers in order to ascertain how many steps backward we have regressed with this expansion. I submitted those questions to Aleh via their website's contact page one week ago but have received no response.
Once again, Wonder why?
