I was on my way to her house when she told me I couldn’t come Visit her because she had been exposed to Covid-19 at her place of work and needed to get tested, We were both very sad that we could spend time together this weekend like we had planned. The next morning she went to get tested.

She received the news that her test came back positive. My sister was devastated because we had just los out Mother on Dec 25th 2020 to covid and her Memorial Service was coming up and she was not going to be able to be with her one last time. My Sister Quarantined her self I. Her Bedroom so that she wouldn’t expose anyone else, she tried to get better on her own at home like they told her to do she took Tylenol for pain warm teas and soups, despite of all her efforts to get better with help from family and friends she wasn’t feeling any better she was scared and nervous to go to the hospital after everything we had just been going through with our Beautiful Mother and loosing her was the hardest thing for us.
