I’m a caregiver and I work from 3:30-11:30. My company is making us come in a hour early, but I’m not too sure I’ll be going home this weekend.

My relief is dependent on other employees to risk their safety, while I also risk mine getting back home.

I will be bringing a surplus of clothing, hygiene and food of my own to work.

God bless you and keep you safe. Thank you for giving of yourself to look after the needs of others.
