It is that time of the year when you go to bed and wake up to find that your backyard is completely surrounded by a virus. You can’t walk without passing by the infected, so you have to act or else you risk infecting another person.
I have been thinking of this recently because I was recently watching a documentary about a different virus. The documentary was about how that virus changed a bunch of people’s lives forever. When you have people in your life that you care about, you want to make sure you are with them every step of the way, but there are always exceptions to the rule. For example, in my case, I’ve been through life experiences that have made me think twice about things.
When I was young I used to have a lot of anxiety and depression. I have always been able to think of myself as stable and safe, but as I got older I realized that I wasn’t. In fact, I was starting to feel that I was beginning to slide outside of my shell. One day I was sitting at the breakfast table with my family and my mother asked me if I was eating.
The next thing I knew there was this man sitting next to me. He was a stranger, but I knew he was someone I had been seeing and talking to for some time. He looked just like me, but his face was completely different. He was a little older, with a slightly different haircut, and he wore glasses.
He was a man, but he was also a stranger. A man I met and befriended while I was in a coma in my home. I was just a few days away from death when he came and helped me through the worst part of the coma. He was like a brother, a friend, and a confidante. We talked often about our day together, about life, about death, and about everything in between.
He was a stranger, but I think the most important thing he did was leave a message for me. “Hey, I’m back. I’m back” he said. “I’m alive. And I’m here to stay. I’m back.
This video contains more than one “stranger” message. I’m not sure exactly how the “stranger” aspect is related to Covid, but I do know that he left a series of messages for me. I was in a coma for a few days after being severely injured in an accident. The last few days I’ve been in a hospital getting treatment for the effects of the treatment I had while in the coma.
I’ve been in a hospital for several days from the effects of treatment from Covid. And I’ve been in a coma for several days from the effects of treatment from Covid. And I’m back.
I’m back from the effects of Covid. I’ve been in a coma for a couple of days. But I’m back.
