Happy Birthday and the Fear of Covid19
Description (Dublin Core)
Today was my dad’s 59th birthday and it was crazy that we couldn’t really celebrate. This
whole Covid19 feels like a bad dream or a scary movie to be honest. It is also Easter and it is
strange that we couldn’t do our typical events and Easter egg hunt for our nephews. It is so tragic
turning on the news and seeing how many people have died from this terrible virus. This whole
experience doesn’t even feel real at times. I feel lucky that my family is still safe, but I worry
about my brother who has to work every single day surrounded by customers. I fear he will get
sick or my sister in law. I am lucky that I have limited contact with people, but my job still
requires me to meet others. It is scary how people have also reacted to this event and hoarded so
much toilet paper and supplies. I am terrified every time I go to the grocery store to get supplies
and food. There is never toilet paper or paper towels. Trying to find certain things such as meat
or cheese or even eggs is close to impossible at my local grocery store. It is insane that there is
not even a bottle of soap or any Lysol to purchase. I miss my nephews and I miss going to
school. I am so lucky compared to so many others, but I am still terrified for the future. This
feels like a scary movie or an episode of Doom’s Day Preppers.
