@media only screen and (min-width: 769px) {

    .comment-form {
        display: grid;
        grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr;
        grid-column-gap: 30px;
    }

    .comment-notes {
        grid-column: 1 / -1;
    }

    .comment-form-comment {
        grid-column: 2 / 3;
        grid-row: 2 / 4;
    }

    .oxy-comment-form .comment-form > p.comment-notes {
        margin-bottom: 40px;
    }

      align-self: end;
    }

    .oxy-comment-form .comment-form .comment-form-url {
