Well Done!

Being a survivor in Covid 19 is such a blessing because it shows how  being brave enough to fight for our lives in the midst of the Pandemic is no easy feat and something to be proud of.

Here are some inspirational stories about being a Covid 19 Survivor;

Ivuoma Tom a COVID-19 victim who is a certified nurse as she described her experience. 

  Ivuoma Tom is employed at a private medical facility in Benin State. As a health professional who is aware of the significant danger that her line of work provides for exposing her to the coronavirus, Ivuoma researched the virus and even enrolled in an online course to better prepare herself. The two weeks she spent combating COVID-19 at the Infectious Disease Hospital in Yaba, Lagos State, however, were unprepared for.

“I got a second chance to live and I am grateful for it,”   

Not everyone is given a second chance, but if they are, take it because it's a gift and it may be something better than what you had before. For us, this saying says a lot about everything, not just being a COVID-19 survivor. God may have given us a second opportunity for a purpose; therefore, we should make the most of it by acting morally and virtuously. Because life is only temporary, it is imperative that we take care of it. If you could do away with simply one aspect from this pandemic and from this post, allow or not it's this. In each situation, regardless of how bad it is, we could usually discover a spark of light. Being reminded to be glad about what we have, being capable of gradual down, experiencing pleasure from sharing with those we love, or letting the planet we stay on relaxation and get better for a bit

“I am very fortunate to have a strong support system. My fiancé, my sister and her husband were strongly there for me,”

We should have a partner to fight beside us in every conflict. We should be able to count on someone in difficult times. help increase our motivation and better prepare us for each struggle we face. Nothing beats a familial connection, no matter what it takes; it is the greatest link anybody can have.

“I believe the coronavirus will one day be a thing of the past, but it lies in all of our hands to make that happen. Please stay safe and let's save the world.”

This quotation reminds us that nothing in this world is permanent; everything that comes through us will disappear. As a result, we should savor each moment and every challenge we face. God gave us the experience of a lifetime, but He knows that we will survive it, so don't be scared; God has divine mercy that He always extends to us. Therefore, constantly inspire yourself, be courageous, and have hope since this all happened because God knows that we will survive it. All we need to do is trust that God is always with us and that He has a purpose in presenting this challenge to us in this particular fashion. He wants us to trust him because we need to understand that he is the reason we are still alive.

A nurse who acquired COVID-19 from one of his patients healed and went back to work with a lot more compassion and commitment.

On April 1, 32-year-old nurse Eugene left the nursing home for the elderly early, excited to visit his wife and their five-month-old boy at their newly constructed home outside of Vienna. But he sensed something was up on the drive home. He started to feel worn out, his neck started to scrape, and he had the nagging suspicion that he could have picked up COVID-19 at work.

“It didn’t kill me, but I came out stronger” 

Every battle we face does not indicate that we should give up easily; rather, it serves to strengthen us rather than serve as a sign that we are weak. It didn't kill us because I fought for it, because our faith is strong and overflowing, and because this problem made us stronger than before thanks to our own experiences, patients, and  sufferings. We don't mind carelessly doing things or giving off bad vibes, but we do pray and believe that this virus is only a charger that fills our deficiency and gives us the faith we need to live. Despite the challenges we faced, We overcame them, which didn't make us weak; it only made us a better version of ourselves. Life is full of problems and suffering; not everything you want will come true, but all that will make you strong in all the trials that are coming in your life.

“I want to show that I’m there for them – even if it’s just a few minutes of relief for them. I want to remind people we can all fight this if we stay at home, stick to the facts, and still be connected while we’re physically distanced. It’s a small sacrifice compared to what the disease does to those who experienced it, and this way we can still be united in solidarity,”  Eugene Said

“When the antibody tests can be proven really effective by the World Health Organization, or governments, or private companies…I will be one of the first to volunteer to share my antibodies and try to save even just one life,”

 Even while COVID-19 gave him the fear of a lifetime, it also made him stronger. Eugene is a survivor with a tale to share and the passion for it, like more than a million others throughout the world.

COVID-19 survivor reflects on 59 days on life support and a year of recovery

Walter Byrd makes a career as an author and producer of movies by telling stories.

He survived COVID-19 last year at M Health Fairview University of Minnesota Medical Center after spending 59 days on a ventilator. One of the most significant and intimate stories he has ever told, he has spent the last year healing and sharing his experience.

“I faced it. I want to do what I can to raise awareness,” 

I can do it by myself by facing the situation... I can do it by making steps and plans for how I'll handle it and share the positive things about it, and by facing it and thinking about the positive parts of it.

“It’s important for me to express gratitude and appreciation for the people who are risking their lives to take care of others,” said Byrd.

The greatest thing to do is to express your thanks to the people who helped you become who you are now. They supported you during your time of isolation, helped you recover from it, and also served as the reason you were spared from contracting the aforementioned illness. They also prevented the COVID-19 from rising and assisted us despite the danger to their own lives.

Never, ever stop praying to God and having faith that he would help you no matter what the issue is if you simply call him. Even when you're beginning to lose hope, never, ever forget to express gratitude to those who came to your aid and showed you care when you needed it. Although COVID-19 is a fatal virus, there is little you can do to prevent it from spreading from your body except to pray to the Almighty and hope for the best.

“I was preparing myself in case anything happened.”

What will occur is not certain to us. You should constantly be mentally, emotionally, and spiritually prepared for the prospect of anything occurring.

In our lives, death is the future. As a result, when we have the chance to live, we will be prepared because we cannot tell when the time of our life will be. We prepare for the possibilities that may arise and face a person's life.

“It took time to figure out what I went through.”

In life we have so many things and situations that really make our emotions go to unexplainable feelings .. sometimes we laugh, sometimes we smile and are happy..  but in life   we realize that we need to figure out  why this happens or what is the lesson  and why it is happening ...But when we go to the brighter side we realize that life is full of circumstances and all we need is to see the positive  side of it.

COVID-19 Patient Writes Inspiring Message on Glass to Caregivers

Following a coronavirus diagnosis, Nic Brown battled to survive in seclusion while being kept alive by a ventilator (COVID-19). The one window he had to the outside world was the one that had the biggest influence on his life.

That window served as a platform for encouraging words from his caregivers in the medical intensive care unit (MICU) at Cleveland Clinic, where a committed team of doctors and nurses care for the sickest of the sick.

The nurses would write goals for me to attempt and achieve each day on the window every day I was there, especially while I was on a ventilator and full life support, recalls Nic, who is no longer in intensive care. They would support me. We will get you home, was written one day.

“I watched you work hard to keep me and others alive, unable to thank you for the time that you poured into me — and although I will probably never get the chance to pour that same love and support into you, I want you to know that I think you all are rockstars.”

 “We use the OK sign and ‘thumbs up’ and other hand gestures. This virus has been a barrier to communication, but it’s also taught us that if you are open to new ideas, there are a lot of different ways to communicate.” 

“You really don’t understand the vulnerability of the human body until you face something like this. There was a time during this process where the hospital reached out to my wife and had to have the discussion about end-of-life-options. My message is for everyone to take more seriously what the impact of this can have on a person.”

 

COVID-19 survivor: ‘I prayed, exercised and played guitar’

On the morning of February 4, 58-year-old musician Riki Gonzales was getting ready to leave the Diamond Princess, a lavish cruise ship on which he had been employed. The captain abruptly declared that no one was permitted to exit because a passenger who was 80 years old had tested positive for the new coronavirus sickness (COVID-19).

“I exercised every morning and played my guitar to fight boredom,” he added. “And I was happy that I was able to write a song.”

Sometimes you may not see it gradually, but it helps a lot. Keep doing what's best for yourself.
