The COVID Experience

Not too long after the last post I came down with a cold and COVID. It was awful. Now after almost two weeks of being isolated I can legally go out and exercise to see whether or not my lungs would explode or hold up to the task of walking around in fresh air.

Thankfully all was fine. Just a short walk around the neighbourhood and then home. I’ve been off work (obvs) and I feel strong enough now to return next week should all remain well.

I cant lie, it’s been super depressing during lockdown anyway but then to be hit with COVID out of nowhere was just too much to bear. I live with older relatives who unfortunately contracted it from me but we are all doing much better now. I really hope I never catch it again, but its one of those things (like the common cold) that it seems will be here to stay from now on. We can only hope that the vaccines, whenever they manifest for our age groups, will lessen the spread of the illness. Hopefully…
