viral insanity

Magnesium is the key

To sleep that I’ve been looking for. 

One tablet and boom. 

New fave. 

Avocado with Lime and salt. 

Done. 

A few bites of Sweet Potato 

For some reason helps. 

Must be high cortisol 

So the mom on the case had a CV19 test. 

It was negative. She’s just diabetic. 

But here’s the kicker. 

All the nurses refuse to come to work 

Until the patient has a test. 

That’s not how this works. 

That’s not how any of this works. 

Non Nurses- I get they’re afraid. 

Like the people I live with. 

They scattered like flies. 

Just from a possible exposure. 

This virus is showing people’s true colors. 

I am 100% confident in my skills

And have 100% faith in my training

And my skills - to be exposed to 

Nearly anything- given the right PPE. 

What are these Nurses thinking? 

How can this be optional?

There are so many Big Bad Wolves 

Out there. Why this? 

Incredible ignorance. 

It’s been a year of sleeping on the floor

And working doubles 

And planning and plotting. 

We are now in Year 2 of CV19. 

A year ago, I said to ask me in a year

How I’m doing. 

And I’m still thriving.
