Covid Stole My Brother

--

First off, I am not here to throw shade at non vaccinated people. I am a firm believer in “live and let live”. I also feel that we all should have our own freedom of choice. I had to vaccinate for my job, and so that I could try and feel less scared to live in such a twisted world.

My brother wasn’t so fortunate, and I want to share his story. It may change your mind about vaccinating, or perhaps it won’t. I simply feel that his message, that he left behind, is a valuable one for all of us.
