What has been the most challenging part of Covid-19? 

 

The most challenging part of covid19 for me is the monotony of staying at home and not leaving besides the occasional walk and getting essentials. I miss things like enjoying the Boston Common during my lunch break and teaching dance classes at night.

​

What has given you strength/ are there any unexpected positives from this time?

​

As someone with cardiovascular disease and who has had heart surgery I am no stranger to being isolated at home or in a hospital. One silver lining to having that experience is while this whole pandemic is strange in new ways it is contrasted by an eerie yet comforting sense of familiarity for myself and lessens my apprehension about the situation.

​

Who do you wear a mask for?

​

The health of myself and others. I know what it’s like to be bedridden and rely on a tube to breathe. I don’t wish that on anybody.
