Sick

By Joe

Behold, I will bring it health and healing; I will heal them and reveal to them the abundance of peace and truth.

— Jeremiah 33:6

After four years and every Covid vaccine available, it finally caught up to me. I’ve had a cold that started Friday evening. This morning, I was feeling worse, so, I took a home Covid test. It was pretty definitely positive. I scheduled a visit through my insurance company to see a virtual doctor this morning. If she is able to prescribe Paxlovid, I’m not sure that I’ll be able to get to the pharmacy. We are in the middle of a major snowstorm and expected to get 9” of snow throughout the day. The snow isn’t expected to stop until 5 pm which is when the pharmacy closes. I’ll just have to wait and see how the day goes.

I began my life in the South and for five years lived as a closeted teacher, but am now making a new life for myself as an oral historian in New England. I think my life will work out the way it was always meant to be. That doesn't mean there won't be ups and downs; that's all part of life. It means I just have to be patient. I feel like October 7, 2015 is my new birthday. It's a beginning filled with great hope. It's a second chance to live my life…not anyone else's. My profile picture is "David and Me," 2001 painting by artist Steve Walker. It happens to be one of my favorite modern gay art pieces. View all posts by Joe
