How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.
It was so nice to be able to walk to the water and get outside on a sunny day in Vancouver. Ive been stuck not being able to walk because Im having trouble with one of my feet… I'm seeing physio for it. Not being able to be active is affecting my mood. My husband and i only see our kids because of omicron spreading so bad. So we are isolated from friends and relatives trying to stay healthy. Not being able to walk takes away my only activity, its depressing.

How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.
My professional life has forever changed immensely during this pandemic. I have found it very challenging to exhibit strength and determination in the face of adversity. An educator is revered and vulnerable to students. Educators are never expected to show defeat especially not in the front line of students. My students have witnessed the opposite. They have seen my fears, concerns, doubts, and anger. I have exhibited a great deal of vulnerability. However, my students and I have wedged a lasting bond. Students are able to see that teachers are not only their superheroes but are human, too.
