I cried today. I spoke to a lady about her mental health. She was concerned as she felt it was not that good. She has been panicking before going to work.
She works in our local hospital. Our hospital that is filling up with COVID19.
I told her that she has every reason to feel anxious and that I was amazed that she is still going in. And I had to try hard to stop her from hearing the tears in my voice as I talked to her.
My job has risk, but hers has so much more. So when I clap for the NHS today, I will not be clapping for me, I will be clapping for people like her.
