Focus on observable, practical impact

  • The room and condition affecting it
  • Whether normal use was possible, limited, or not possible
  • How many days the entry covers
  • What changed in daily living, such as where people slept or prepared food
  • A broad practical cost, if relevant, while keeping receipts separately
