“We’re all having to dig deep and get through this as a whole.”

What are your fears and/or concerns right now?

Anyone in my family catching the virus. Getting sick myself and not being able to take care of my kids. Running out of formula for my baby... he takes a certain type and it’s been low at stores.

What have you learned from living this new normal?

I can handle a lot more than I thought I could. The four of us all really rely on one another in all shapes and forms.

Do you think anything positive will come from all of this?

My stepson has had time to bond with his brother that he would not have had otherwise. They have become very close these past few weeks. It’s also really brought together our city, the restaurants, artists and neighborhoods. We’re all in this together and we’re all having to dig deep and get through this as a whole.
