Guests Gary and Karen, discuss their personal journey and setting up a local Long Covid support group

In this episode of the podcast I am grateful to speak with Gary and Karen, they talk with me openly about their acute and Long Covid journey as a married couple.
We discuss how long covid impacts life and "the person we once was", Karen reads an impacting piece she wrote through a creative writing group titled "The goldfish bowl". I am sure this will resonate with many.
Gary and Karen have been involved with fund raising and their local community pre pandemic and although things have changed for them, their kind and supportive hearts have led them to running an online and now also face to face Long Covid support group in their local area, listen to find out more, thank you so much to both Gary and Karen for joining me #onedayatatime
