A grandmother is taking extra steps to avoid the virus: She’s decided to move outside.

Retirement communities are not ideal in the middle of the pandemic, so one California woman is living in a ‘coach house’ in her daughter’s backyard.

Construction was complete in just a few months and now her family won’t have to worry about her getting home safely after dinner.

The unit has a bedroom area, full kitchen and bathroom. The family says it’s a little pressure off in these unprecedented times.
