One Minute I’m Fine The Next I’m In Tears

One minute I am fine, the next I’m in tears. It’s like I can’t hold it together.
I’m emotional from all the things I’ve seen at work. Desperately holding on to hope, desperately trying to help save people from the evil invisible virus.
I have never been so heartbroken in my entire life and I cannot shake the faces of patients out of my mind. The look in their eyes as they fight with every struggling breath. Covid19 is a bastard!


I can’t hold it together because of the beautiful unity throughout the world right now. People from all walks of life coming together as one. Supporting one another and helping each other in this time. It is the most beautiful yet horrific situation to be in.
If you know me, I’m very airy fairy and want the world to just be happy clappy all of the time. But the reality is, it just isn’t. But right now, thru this pandemic , through this torture that is upon us, the world is as one. This is truly amazing.


My neighbours have come out every week clapping, cheering and banging their pots. I can’t help but to cry with happiness and appreciation because their appreciation for, not just the NHS, but ALL keyworkers, is amazing.
I write this in absolute tears, because again, I cannot hold it together.

Myself and husband work very hard every day some days with little protection. But still go out there working as hard as we can. Leaving our children behind, fighting this battle. Not knowing what we will bring home.

So thank you, every single person who has rejoiced, came together, supported and sent words of encouragement to one another in this time. You guys are the real heros, because without you guys, we wouldn’t be able to continue this day in and day out.
