Only Half My Family Is Vaccinated, And I’m Exhausted From COVID-Worry “If anyone gets the virus, I cannot attend my daily radiation therapy. Gulp.”
We’re feeling extra pressure to always make the right choices because I’m currently in breast cancer treatment. Though I am no longer considered immunosuppressed, having finished chemotherapy a month ago, my treatment plan only stays on course if my family stays healthy. If anyone gets the virus, I cannot attend my daily radiation therapy.. I desperately want to complete my treatment plan, and doing so totally depends on the health of my entire family.
Take, for example, getting together with our extended families. We haven’t attended a wedding, funeral, birthday party, or any other event this entire time. We decided not to get together for Christmas last year—which, honestly, broke my heart. It’s my absolute favorite holiday. However, three of us who would attend were considered high risk, and I’d written enough about living room spread to know that getting together wasn’t a good idea.
Will we, as a society, ever get ahead? It seems there are two camps: those who take the virus seriously and follow the precautions and those who have thrown caution to the wind and are living their best lives. Will this ongoing torture ever be over? I am not, as many assume, living in fear. Rather, I’m choosing to “love thy neighbor.” But I’ll be honest and tell you that it’s disheartening to first, feel quite alone in doing this, and second, not being certain of exactly how I’m supposed to best protect myself and others at this point.
