We did not spend this Thanksgiving the way we wanted too. It was just me and Mike. We and our immediate family decided to each spend our day apart. Safe in our own homes with just the people who live there.
Did we want to have everybody over and hug and laugh and eat too much - of course we did.
But we also know personally just how awful this virus is. That someone you played "who can hold their breathe the longest" as a kid is now suffering to take a breath. That they are laying in a hospital bed watching for you and just seeing a nurse or Dr. because you can't visit.
I know everybody has to live their lives the way they think is best. I know there are people who don't and won't wear masks - I feel bad for them. I'm not going to ask you to. But please, please know there are some who believe and hope and pray that just a simple face covering will save someone catching this serious vicious disease.
And know that words hurt - Making fun of someone who is staying back from you and wearing a mask and refusing to shake your hand, high five or fist bump is doing so for a reason. We are not paranoid we are experiencing something we never hope you or anyone you love will ever go thru.
