It was two months ago when I been given the analysis that so several People in america throughout our state and the globe experienced presently received—I tested constructive for COVID-19. To make issues worse, my spouse, and our nation’s Commander-in-Chief, gained the similar news.

In a natural way my brain went quickly to our son. To our fantastic relief he analyzed unfavorable, but yet again, as so lots of mothers and fathers have assumed more than the earlier several months, I could not aid but imagine “what about tomorrow or the future day?” My concern arrived legitimate when he was examined again and it arrived up constructive.
