#immunodeficient

I know you’re sick again, I know you’re missing school or work again

My darling, it is not your fault

I know you’re sick all the time, I know how shitty it feels, I know how condescending and annoying people are about it

But I also know it’s not your fault, I know you are way more annoyed than than the stupid complaining people are, and I know they have no right to complain

This is your body and I know how hard you try to take care of it

And I know it’s impossible to take care of your body properly sometimes and it’s infuriating and upsetting having to take so many precautions you shouldn’t have to take just to be safe, and I know sometimes you skip something and get hurt or sick but it’s not your fault

You are doing your best that is enough

Your best is different everyday

It’s not your fault that you get sick and/or are in pain all the time, it’s not your fault you can’t function

We love you

Masks are completely sold out or extremely expensive (£50> online) due to people panic bulk buying.

I'm immunocompromised and am under protective quarantine for the next 12 weeks. However I have no choice but to leave the house occasionally, and this is very risky for my health.

Gryp Germaphobe's Keychain - $3 (4 for $9)

Really loving this clever tool for germ-sensitive folks! You can hang it from your keys (or someplace that picks up less germs, maybe), and use it to touch all those nasty surfaces without getting infected with *~*~whatever~*~*

Not perfect and definitely will take a little dexterity/lack of joint pain to use. But so, so handy.
