Wife is a nurse that works at a hospital and when she'd come home from her shift, when Covid was raging, she'd derobe in the garage and run to the shower to wash. We had a 3 year old and 6 month old at the time. And she risked all our lives to help people that didn't take the issue seriously and some that even yelled at her that she faked their bloodwork because Covid wasn't real.

Thank you for trying to help others, even when they don't believe it's real.
