You are so right ! No one cares about anyone anymore . No one understands my fear . My husband has cancer and he just wants to live his life . I feel like I am alone with my fear of COVID . My family and friend’s have moved on .

very very sorry to hear this. Listen to the medical professionals. Don't follow advice from anyone else.

Good morning, @skullbasecancer4. You’re not alone in your fear of Covid. Sadly, it’s the same with those of us who are also immuno compromised and have no idea how our bodies will react, even when being vaccinated for the virus. But we also have to be concerned for other illnesses such as influenza, RSV, Measles, etc..
We can have normal lives with a few precautions. I wear a mask when I’m out in public; in stores, meetings, or even in social settings in my own home with people visiting. Guests and I wear masks in our home.
My friends/family have learned it’s what’s necessary for me to remain healthy, even though they maybe can’t relate on a personal level. I still turn down invitations to certain gatherings if there will be too many people present who will be unmasked or not vaccinated. Lots of hand sanitizer, hand washing and common sense is still important, not just to prevent Covid. The only thing my husband and I don’t do is go out to eat in a restaurant, unless we can eat outside.

I still occasionally get someone making a snarky comment about wearing a mask. I literally laughed out loud the other day when a woman, much older than me was walking towards me in the grocery store. She muttered to me, “Take that “dam***” mask off. I’m tired of looking at you!” I’d never seen the woman before in my life. 😅 So I actually laughed and wished her a great day.

Are you and your husband able to be out in public? What is your concern?
