Covid-19

Hello my DU friends this is my first post. I am shaken up my friend Hubert of many years died this afternoon from the Covid-19 virus. He was 55 years old.
He started with a cold, then a cough and then pneumonia which made it hard for him to breathe. It was 12 hours from there that he was intubated that was it.

because we don’t realize at first the blow delivered to mind and body. Friends we expected to stay on this journey with us...tough loss. And it feels unnatural that the cause is this. Be good to yourself. ❤️
