Dear Blog #3

Hi there everyone.

Today has been a lot better. After resting my ankle all of yesterday, I have started to gain more stability and movement in the ankle. Yesterday, I was sat in bed all day like a slop which for me was a complete struggle as I am normally up and moving by 7 AM. Today I was able to get washed and dressed which made me feel better mentally. I hate not being washed and clean. While I still don't have complete strength back in my right foot, I was grateful that I could stand up by myself and not fall over.

It makes me wonder: how many people don't get up at all when they are working from home? At the moment, billions of people all over the world are working from home due to the Coronavirus. However, loads of those people will not get out of bed all day because no one else will see them.Yesterday, I just sat in bed all day and it made me feel disgusting and gross so how do people do this everyday when they are working from home. How? How can people do it?

Loads of people have also lost their jobs due to the virus. So many companies have shut down because they might not have the funds to keep going while their is no income coming through.At my job, I am technically furloughed until the foreseeable future due to my job technically being a sports centre. Furloughed basically means that all of us at my work are currently being paid 80% of our wages every month by the government. It is scary as I am technically at the moment on paid redundancy. It is horrible not knowing whether you are going to have a job to go back to when all of this is over.

It was a short update today but I wanted to share something that had been on my chest all day. I will do a longer one tomorrow and I may share another post as well.
