Many of us have experienced restrictions on movement and social contact during the pandemic. Talk about any restrictions that have especially affected you.

Over the quarantine, one of the most challenging aspects was not seeing my mother while she was sick with the virus. I wanted to care for her and be by her side, but knowing that is the last thing to do with an infectious virus to spread it even more. I was restricted from helping and being with one of the people I loved most, and I could then see the fragility of life and the importance of spending meaningful time with your loved ones. Each hour and day she was sick, I wished to help her and talk to her. But with the circumstances, time is the only constant.
