Oh my Arielle, I’m so sorry to hear you have been ill and that you have some financial challenges as well. Did you get the virus or did you have pneumonia? It is wonderful to see you are focusing on your blessings rather than your sorrows, which I really needed to be reminded of lately. I have had some emotional challenges recently in my life, however, I will not let these challenges knock me off the path I have chosen at this time, regardless of the bumps. Thank you for reminding me to count my blessings.
Take care of you and trust in Him. Hugs to you and your loved ones!

Hi Susan, sorry to hear that you are also going through difficult times 
From us writing I understand that you are strong and have a healthy attitude towards life and all the ups and downs that it consists of. I sincerely hope that your strength will get you through your current challenges and that there will be Joy awaiting you on the road ahead, you are in my prayers 
In Sweden they do not test you for covid19 unless you end up in hospital which fortunately has not been the case for me.
That said, the overall symptoms are not corresponding with pneumonia so I take extra care of not exposing my presense to others until I am fully symtomfree to avoid any possible risk of spreading an infection.
Take care and thank you for replying, you always seems to make my day a little brighter

Thanks, when I replied to Susan I forgot that everyone can see it, did not mean too complain, this too shall pass...
There are a lot of things to be grateful for so I will focus on that. A few months back I am not sure if my lungs could have taken this and now it seems they could, how about that! 
Wish you Joy and that you and your loved ones are healthy 
Take care and keep going strong 
Hope you are well
