’Hug curtain’ keeps family close
At a time when we could all use a hug, a Louisiana woman has found a creative way to give them amid the coronavirus outbreak.
Kathy Alleman says her desire to hug her family inspired her to create her "hug curtain."
The reunion video of her hugging her parents for the first time in weeks went viral.
“I told her I really missed my hugs,” says Alleman’s father, C.J. Cavalier. “Well she went on she went right to workand a couple of hours we were over here hugging,” Cavalier said.
