Seven weeks in isolation. For me, it hasn’t felt much different, as for the last year, I’ve been in recovery after brain aneurysm surgery and have been isolated anyway. It’s been a year of fearing death, now this!
When this Pandemic became public, I felt afraid for myself, my family and friends. Thousands were dying across the globe, it felt surreal.
Three years ago, I had a premonition, that this event was coming. The details included China and the USA as the major players. It was to be a battle like no other to survive. I shudder just how precise my premonition has been.
In the first weeks of isolation, I couldn’t sleep, had anxiety. I’d meditate, it helped. On difficult nights, I’d call my friend Bonnie in the USA. America was fast becoming a hot spot for the virus and I was very concerned for the safety of my friends there and that this soon, would also be what Australia would be contending with.
I have only left my home three times all these weeks. I always wear a mask and gloves, but shopping has become too stressful. I used to enjoy shopping, but now I feel afraid of a virus I can’t see and of people being too close to me. Will we ever know normal life again?
Our numbers have decreased here. The government is reducing safety requirements, but I think it’s too soon. If a second wave comes in winter, we may be hit worse. Our advantage is, we have had preparation time, unlike many other countries. Let’s pray we all get through this!
Australia is doing well, and I’m grateful we have a government that actually cares about its people. I compare our situation to America and I just thank my lucky stars, I’m Australian!
