EXCERPT
​
"I could not control having a deadly reaction to COVID-19. However, I could control what it meant to me. It was terrifying, but it was also an opportunity for rebirth and reassessment. I learned to appreciate the extraordinary work of my medical community. I learned to love my family and friends. And I learned to love myself for who I am and not who I think I need to be.
I wrote this book to share one COVID story. It’s my hope that survivors will connect to my experience and caregivers will have a sense of what they can do to help them. I want to highlight the amazing work of my medical team. I also want to acknowledge my personal community for their tremendous support in my time of need. Finally, I want to make COVID more real for those people who have been spared from its devastating impact."
