To My Family Member, My life hasn't been too bad since the coronavirus pandemic began. I had begun working from home in December when it first started appearing on the news, COVID-19, spreading in China. By the time it made its way to America, I was already staying home most days. My lifestyle barely changed. I was unable to go out as much, though. I get sick so easy, my fiancé declared I should stay home as much as humanly possible. My only previous trips were usually grocery shopping, and the began to insist upon having groceries delivered to us. I don't mind staying home all the time, but the loneliness can get to me at times. I haven't spoken to a person, who wasn't family, in person since February... It's June. Besides bothersome loneliness, my only other struggle has been financial. When the restrictions there first started, I feared my fiance and I would become homeless from financial loss. Thanks to stimulus money, my fiance securing a job as an "essential" employee, we've managed to stay afloat. I do wish I could go out more, if even to grocery shop, but I suppose I'll have to wait until it's safe for me. All My Love, Your Family Member
