Miphouvieng Family,
We both work in the healthcare system and are deeply involved in COVID-19. Our schedules have increased and have been working hard to stop the spread of this virus. Northlake United States
Sheilaf Farpour,
I've started working from home for the past two weeks and have had no real human interaction. I leave my house for 30minutes a day for some fresh air. My boyfriend is in Atlanta, Georgia. I may drive to him to be with him. Northlake United States
Walusko Family,
Our cat destroyed two rolls of toilet paper. We were able to find some at the Marriott Hotel marketplace. My husband lost his job in the service industry and I am working from home. Our daughter has been coping with homeschooling, as she thought she had time off from school. Northlake United States
Aistrup Family,
We have slown-down from our hectic schedules, but we are isolated from our grandchildren. We are just at home and enjoy our new house together. Northlake United States
Christain Schut,
I had to cancel our twentieth-anniversary cruise to the Bahamas. We are spending more time together at home now. Northlake United States
Way Family,
My husband is working at home and is utterly distraught because he's losing status by not traveling. I work as a nurse; I try to distance myself from him and his mother, who lives with us. I'm afraid that I could get them sick. Northlake United States
'Iggy', a forty foot long sculpture of an iguana created by Texas artist Bob 'Daddy O' Wade was placed on the Fort Worth Zoo's Administration Building. The sculpture owned by Lee M. and Ramona Bass is on loan to the Fort Worth, Texas zoo and was set in place by a helicopter. Northlake United States
Ricardo Chiu,
I live with my in-laws; they are in their 90's. I take care of them and worry about getting them infected every day I step outside. Northlake United States
Nichols Family,
We are a family of five. My husband is an aircraft mechanic and has to work through this pandemic. I am home attempting to work remotely and homeschool four boys while taking care of our eight-month-old. Although it has been chaotic, it has brought us closer as a family. The world is a scary place and this has been a huge reminder of how much family means. Northlake United States
Gutierrez Family, We have grown closer to God and each other. We have gotten some much-needed rest and shifted focus on volunteering in creative ways. My husband works for the Fire Departement and is working during these scary times. I am working from home with my two boys and our new puppy. Northlake United States
Klein Family, I work in the NICU at the hospital, and my husband is a mechanical engineer in the Central Texas region. We are both fighting this virus in different ways. At home, our children are homeschooling and missing their busy baseball and softball schedules. Northlake United States
Lopez Family, It is just my daughter and me. We have learned to roll with the punches and learned to take every day one at a time. Northlake United States
Gazlay Family, I'm a hairstylist and unable to work. My husband is an Essential worker, so he still has to go out on the job. I have enjoyed being home with my five-year-old son, we do schoolwork, read and go on lots of walks together. Northlake United States
Martinez Family, The pandemic has been confusing for my children. Two of my children have Autism, and they all have ADHD. We were unable to travel for a memorial service after the death of my oldest son's biological mother because the area in California was on lockdown. I am a single mother now homeschooling three of my kiddos. We started social distancing very early because I have had two brain surgeries and have a VP shunt in my head. I was recovering from my lastest brain surgery and was ready to return to work as a School Psychologist, and then the schools shut down. I am still unemployed, and my savings are now gone. I know I'm a strong woman, but when this started, I didn't think I could be a home school mom; however, our churchward, school teachers, and friends are our village and help get us through emotionally, spiritually, and temporally. Northlake United States
Ramos-Arausa, We are both military veterans; after leaving the military, we entered the private banking sector. It has been a challenge to work from home while homeschooling our three-year-old son. But the time together has been a blast! Recently my husband's sister and her husband tested positive for COVID-19. They live in Colorado. She is fighting for her life in ICU, and her husband is quarantined at home. Northlake United States
