Excellent writing. Depicting precisely what this nightmare is all about. Apart from the 5 people that was family and close friends that died in three weeks time there are another 10 neighbors that were lost to the terrible disease ! Till now I didn't think much about it but now I feel its breath. May the Lord help all of us to escape its rage! Hugs dearest Anne-Lise xxx
