Oh God I'm Here

 WOW Long time no see. I'm alive.

At my morgue we have had COVID patients. It hasn't been pretty. It's been a lot, in fact, which is why I disappeared from DW and the rest of the world for a while. I promise I'm alive, and I'm safe. Alex is safe too. We're just trying to survive both being in the healthcare field while people fail to social distance.

PLEASE SOCIAL DISTANCE, OKAY?

Love, 

A last responder in the thick of it

I’m glad to hear you’re both safe ♥

Yes, we luckily are. Since I'm a last responder and my boyfriend isn't in emergency room medicine, we aren't in contact with aggressively sick people, but I'm still going to be sanitizing the morgue like crazy... My hands are raw from all the cleaning, are yours? I don't know what the situation is like in your neck of the woods.

I’ve definitely had a bad eczema outbreak on my hands from all the extra washing that I can’t quite get rid of because of more washing XD

I’m in London and it’s not as bad as NYC which is a relief because it easily could have been given comparable population/urban density/public transport use, and while London is definitely the worst off, the rest of the UK is having outbreaks as well.. We’re under somewhat tighter lockdown restrictions than any US State I know about (although we were behind on a lot of other European countries), and it seems to be helping although not as much as I’d like.
