@oliviaahliv Things are going to get better, hang in there, one day you will look back at this time of your life and you will realize that it is in the low moments that we grow the most. One day you will smile about it, thinking about how you overcame it. Stay strong, it will pass.
HEALTH UPDATE:
It has officially been one year since I contracted Covid-19 while on set for my movie that I’ve been working on.
I was once a very healthy 31-year old man, but now every day is a struggle for me.

We have a lot of work ahead
It is all-hands-on-deck situation
We need every one of you!

I had a scary dream last night where I tested + for SARS². That second line frightened me. I retested and it was still there.

I cannot get sick with anything, beyond Sars2.
I take no chances. #CovidIsntOver
“Brianna, wow, how do you read so much?”
Ok I won’t gatekeep: Have absolutely no life because you’re so busy trying to survive a pandemic that your biggest outing is your every other month Costco trip and no one wants to hang out with you because you don’t live like it’s 2019.
