Sybil, I think it’s easy to think things will never go back to normal - and I do understand the transplant patients thinking that. But the world has been here before, and it’s always gone back to normal then, and so I’m sure it will now.
I was doing some research (unrelated to the virus) a few nights back and I came across this photograph from 1919 in a film fan magazine from the time. It shows cameramen using masks so that they could continue making films at the time of the Spanish flu. It’s just a reminder that we HAVE been here before, and things WILL eventually get better.
And that is my positive message quota for the week!
