2020: A Year To Forget?

The optimism of New Year's Eve 2019 wasn't to last as coronavirus put humanity on hold at the start of the year.

So is 2020 a year to forget?

2020 is a year I want to forget, my marriage ended and I almost lost my dad to COVID-19.

I came down with a strange unidentified respiratory virus in December 2019. I ended up in ITU for a month in respiratory failure at 39 years old with not much hope of recovery. I did pull through but was left completely physically and mentally obliterated by what happened to me. I remember in February 2020 when I could finally physically recovered, my husband took me to Rome. I kept seeing things about this virus and began panicking. We left early and went back to the UK and then my nightmare began. I started seeing the pictures of the people in the ICU on TV and that’s when the PTSD triggered and I spent the next year terrified which eventually lead to a complete mental breakdown. Honestly the worst year of my life, almost lost my marriage, our home and my life. Dealing with the deaths of family and friends, completely isolated from everyone. Never again.

This is so weird for me to say this as we are nearly approaching 4 years, as I know people have lost someone but for me who hasn't , lockdown one was one of happiest period of my life (especially when furlough was announced and approved by my employer ). I was gyming, baking , gaming (war zone) with the mrs, using house party and teams to day connected with friends and family had a proper daily routine and got so much done around the flat, sure it was was frustrating in the beginning lining for hours in line at Sainsbury's etc just to do a quick shop. Even looking forward until Thursdays at 8pm for the NHS claps truly nostalgic for me.

2020 and 2021 are two halves of an epic story arc that will define our world for generations to come.

I hope we do not forget. When the next pandemic comes around we have lessons that need to be remembered.

2021 isn’t going to be some magical year.

[GamingForLifeGFL]

Why did the UK and other countries not close borders so the virus stayed in one place instead of causing a global pandemic??

[RoxFoster]

This year has been the worst yet we all need to forget this year 🦠

[jacobsalter]

It started of so dark and so awful, then light came through the dark and it became an oddly amazing time to be in on especially virtually and then after once the virus eased and was treated to great weather as well

2021 will be pretty much the same. 2022 will be back to normal.

It's sliding the wrong direction humanity : next century will be the real decider for long term future on planet.
