ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.- Henry Vallo and his wife contracted COVID-19 in November. She recovered, but Henry had to be hospitalized. When he was hospitalized, we kept thinking oh, he ll come home soon. The weeks turned into months, said Vallo s daughter, Heidi Roibal.
The 79-year-old was placed on a ventilator in the ICU at UNM Sandoval Regional Medical Center.
Roibal says it was challenging for the family to keep in touch with her father. There was one iPad on the ICU, and it was constantly being scheduled, she said.
After that experience, Roibal decided to find a way to keep patients and their families better connected. She raised $3,000 to buy more tablets for the ICU.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. Locally owned computer business Computer Corner is changing ownership after nearly 40 years.
Joe and Carole Petranovich, founders of the midtown store at 3101 Menaul NE, announced in a news release that they are retiring. The couple sold the store to Brian and Kathryn Fletcher in early February.
“My husband, Joe, and I founded Computer Corner 38 years ago and it’s been a great experience,” Carole Petranovich wrote. “We’re passing the torch to another great husband-and-wife team.”
