COVID-19 hit home for me.

A close colleague of mine whom I worked with for many years suddenly passed away yesterday from COVID-19. I was still talking to her on our weekly scheduled touch points up until last week. She told me she'd decided to take a week off to recuperate, only for us to find out yesterday she instead actually checked herself into the hospital and died last night.

We don't know where she may have gotten it, or how, but she leaves behind her two daughters and her husband, and now they are all in isolation until further notice. She was only 48 too. What a sad way to go.

Stay safe, everyone.
