How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.
Well I finally got it! Started as a dry throat on Thursday and I attributed it to being at a gymnastics meet and being in a car that had mold. Then Friday night got a cough. Saturday cough and slight congestion. Was supposed to work at the hospital Sunday but went to get tested instead. Was shocked to be positive! Fortunately I just had the cough intermittently, congestion for 2 days and that’s it. No fever, not tired, no loss of taste or smell. So I spent a week cleaning my house, doing online courses I’ve been wanting to do, and cleaning out my closet! So can’t complain and I’m grateful for that. I am going to NYC to see my daughter perform for the first time in over 2 years so I was actually glad to get it over with. Now I do t have to worry about it interfering with my trip.

Talk about how the events of recent months have affected your financial situation.
My finances have completely been messed up snd I feel my profession has been really hurt. I am not sure I will be able to pay my fees and remain a massage therapist and not sure I want to either with wearing masks and having this hang over us so long. I feel I fell in the cracks and if it were not fir my husbands job our family would have been severely affected. I have had a trickle if clients and that has helped somewhat as well as some money from the government. I am confused if I still can get any. I do not have sick days or ei. Its a tough one
