CHOICE: How mine fared

I am writing this letter sharing my experience with COVID-19 and being vaccinated. I truly believe that everyone should make their own choices and that there should be no mandates, but I want to share my own personal experience.

I am one with a very weak immune system. I chose to get vaccinated this past spring and was diagnosed with COVID-19 on Oct. 9. It has not been easy. I have had every symptom, oxygen low and inflamed and damaged lungs, but I have been able to stay out of the hospital and off a ventilator.

Because of my health conditions and my past experiences with my weak immune system, science shows that it’s all thanks to getting vaccinated and receiving the antibody treatment that Heritage Health offers. I am beyond thankful that we live in a nation where we all can make this choice.

Freedom to choose. This is just my own experience I wanted to share with you all, but of course, your body, your choice. God Bless.
