To “The Man in the Arena” Fighting Coronavirus, I Say Thank You
To all, I am grateful
To all the doctors who work day and night to save lives in increasingly difficult conditions.
To all who spend days and weeks without being able to see their own families; who trade their homesickness for the safety of their families; who strive to reduce the suffering of others and ignore their own suffering.
To all who have to make terrible choices, who have to have to choose between the ones they will try to save and those who will have to die first.
Thank you all.
To all the nurses, technicians, and health professionals who accumulate the work and tiredness of taking care of patients every day with the effort of trying to keep everything safe and clean, in so very difficult circumstances.
Thank you all.
To all the parents who suffer because they know their children are fighting the disease without being able to see them; to all children who suffer from their parents’ absence for the same reason; to all grandparents who are away from their grandchildren; to all kids who don’t understand why they can’t hug a crying friend.
To all of them, my solidarity.
