Umfanekiso kaBrittany England

Konke ukuwa, kufanele ngitshele abantu ukuthi ngiyabathanda - kepha cha, angikwazi ukubanga.

Kufanele ngichaze ukubambezeleka okude ekubhaleni. Cha, angikwazi ukuza entweni yakho ejabulisa kakhulu. Ngisula izindawo engizobe ngizisebenzisa esidlangalaleni ngosula amagciwane. Ngiphatha amagilavu ​​enitrile esikhwameni sami. Ngigqoka imaski yezokwelapha. Nginuka okokuhlanza izandla.

Ngikhuphula izinyathelo zami ezijwayelekile, zokuqapha unyaka wonke nge. Angivele ngigweme imigoqo yesaladi, ngigwema ukudla ezindaweni zokudlela ngokuphelele.

Ngiya izinsuku - kwesinye isikhathi amasonto - ngaphandle kokunyathela ngaphandle kwekhaya lami. Iphenti lami ligcwele, ikhabethe lami lemithi ligcwele, abathandekayo behlisa izinto engingakwazi ukuzithenga kalula ngingedwa. Ngiyalala.

Njengowesifazane okhubazekile futhi ongalapheki onezifo eziningi ezizimele zomzimba osebenzisa i-chemotherapy neminye imishanguzo ecindezela amasosha omzimba ukuphatha imisebenzi yezifo, ngikujwayele ukwesaba ukutheleleka. Ukuhlukaniswa komphakathi kuyinto ejwayelekile yesizini kimi.

Kulo nyaka, kubonakala sengathi angingedwa. Njengoba isifo esisha se-coronavirus, i-COVID-19, singena emiphakathini yethu, abantu abanamandla babhekene nohlobo olufanayo lokwesaba ukuthi izigidi zabantu abaphila namasosha omzimba abuthaka babhekana naso sonke isikhathi.

Ngangicabanga ukuthi ukuqondwa kuzozwakala kangcono

Lapho ukuhlukaniswa komphakathi kuqala ukungena ngolimi lwendabuko, ngangicabanga ukuthi ngizozizwa ngiqinisiwe. (Ekugcineni! Ukunakekelwa komphakathi!)

Kepha i-flip ekwazini iyamangaza ngokumangazayo. Njengolwazi lokuthi, ngokusobala, akekho obezigeza izandla zakhe kahle kuze kube manje. Kugcizelela ukwesaba kwami ​​okufanelekile kokuphuma endlini ngosuku olujwayelekile, olungabhebhethekisi.

Ukuphila njengowesifazane okhubazekile futhi oyindida ngokwempilo kungiphoqelele ukuba ngibe uhlobo lochwepheshe emkhakheni engingakaze ngifise ukwazi ukuthi ukhona. Abangane bebengishayela ucingo hhayi nje ukunikela ngosizo, noma ukuthola izeluleko zezempilo ezingacelwanga, kodwa ukubuza: Yini okufanele bayenze? Ngenzani?

Njengoba ubuchwepheshe bami bufunwa kulo bhubhane, kuyasulwa ngasikhathi sinye lapho umuntu ephinda, “Yini inkinga enkulu? Ngabe ukhathazekile ngalomkhuhlane? Kulimaza abantu asebekhulile kuphela. ”

Lokho ababonakala bengakunaki iqiniso lokuthi mina, nabanye abaphila nezimo zezempilo ezingamahlalakhona, nathi siwela kuleli qembu elisengozini enkulu. Futhi yebo, umkhuhlane ukwesaba impilo yonke ngokuxakaniseka kwezokwelapha.

Kufanele ngithole induduzo ekuzethembeni kwami ​​ukuthi ngenza konke engikudingayo ukukwenza - futhi yilokho kuphela okungenziwa njalo. Ngaphandle kwalokho, ukukhathazeka kwezempilo kungangimboza. (Uma ukhathazwa ukukhathazeka okuhlobene ne-coronavirus, sicela uxhumane nomhlinzeki wakho wokunakekelwa kwezempilo yengqondo noma i-Crisis Text Line.)

Sonke sinesibopho sokunciphisa ukusabalala kwalesi sifo

Lolu bhubhane yisimo esibi kunazo zonke sento engiphila nayo futhi ngiyicabangisisa unyaka nonyaka. Ngichitha isikhathi esiningi sonyaka, ikakhulukazi manje, ngazi ukuthi ingozi yami yokufa iphezulu.

Zonke izimpawu zesifo sami nazo zingaba uphawu lokutheleleka. Konke ukutheleleka kungaba "yinye," futhi kufanele ngibe nethemba lokuthi udokotela wami oyinhloko wokunakekelwa uyatholakala, ukuthi ukunakekelwa okuphuthumayo okusindayo namakamelo okuphuthumayo kuzongithatha ngendlela ethile ngesikhathi esifanele, nokuthi ngizobona udokotela okholelwa ukuthi nginguye ngiyagula, noma ngabe angikubheki.

Iqiniso ukuthi, uhlelo lwethu lokunakekelwa kwezempilo lunamaphutha - ukusho okuncane.

Odokotela abalaleli ngaso sonke isikhathi iziguli zabo, futhi abesifazane abaningi balwela ukuthi izinhlungu zabo zithathwe ngokungathi sína.

I-United States ichitha imali ephindwe kabili kunokunakekelwa kwezempilo njengamanye amazwe ahola kakhulu, nemiphumela emibi ukuyikhombisa. Futhi amakamelo okuphuthumayo ayenenkinga yokuthwala ngaphambi besibhekene nobhadane.

Iqiniso lokuthi uhlelo lwethu lokunakekelwa kwezempilo alulungiselelanga kabi ukuqubuka kwe-COVID-19 manje kubonakala kucace hhayi kuphela kubantu abachitha isikhathi esiningi bekhungathekile ngohlelo lwezokwelapha - kodwa emphakathini jikelele.

Yize ngikuthola kuyicasula ukuthi izindawo ebengizilwela impilo yami yonke (njengokufunda nokusebenza ekhaya nokuvota ngeposi) zinikezwa ngokukhululekile manje kuphela lapho abantu abanamandla bebona lokhu kulungiswa kunengqondo, Ngivumelana ngenhliziyo yonke nazo zonke izinyathelo ezenziwe ezibekiwe.

E-Italy, odokotela abasebenza ngokweqile abanakekela abantu abane-COVID-19 babika ukuthi kufanele banqume ukuthi ubani ozoyeka afe. Labo bethu abasengozini enkulu yezinkinga ezinkulu bangathemba nje ukuthi abanye bazokwenza konke okusemandleni abo ukusiza ukuthambisa ijika, ngakho odokotela baseMelika ababhekene nalolu khetho.

Nalokhu kuzodlula

Ngaphandle kokuhlukaniswa abaningi bethu babhekene njengamanje, kunezinye izinzuzo eziqondile zalesi sifo ezibuhlungu kubantu abanjengami.

Kuze kube yilapho sesicacile ngakolunye uhlangothi lwale nto, angikwazi ukuthatha imishanguzo ecindezela ukusebenza kwezifo, ngoba lezi zindlela zokwelapha ziqhubeka zicindezela amasosha omzimba wami. Lokho kusho ukuthi ukugula kwami ​​kuzohlasela izitho zami, imisipha, amalunga, isikhumba, nokuningi, kuze kube kuphephile ukuthi ngiqale ukwelashwa.

Kuze kube yileso sikhathi, ngizoba sezinhlungwini, isimo sami esinolaka singalawulwa.

Kodwa singaqiniseka ukuthi isikhathi sonke esibhajwe ngaphakathi sifushane ngokusemandleni omuntu. Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi i-immunocompromised noma cha, izinhloso zawo wonke umuntu kufanele kube ukugwema ukuba yi-vector yezifo kwabanye abantu.

Singakwenza lokhu, iqembu, uma nje sibona ukuthi sonke sikulokhu sindawonye.
