*1 year 5 months

1 year 5 months,  that may seem like an odd number but that is how long it has been since I have been in the same room as my husband and our children have seen their father.  He was arrested Aug 2019 we had our video visits while he was in county, and then he was moved after sentencing. There was hope,  we’d be able to see each other soon. We were approved for visits but had to wait for the flu quarantine to be lifted,  then COVID-19 came and there was no visiting.  Maybe in the summer nope,  maybe video visits,  no on those too. So now we wait for a pandemic to be controlled.  Our mental health has been terrible but no one seems to care.  So we wait,  meanwhile,  my husband who has a history of asthma gets sick,  why,  maybe from the movement of other inmates,  staff members,  who knows.  His case was mild, praise God but he watched as another inmate stayed in bed next to him for a week before getting any medical attention and then once he did,  his O2 sat was 81%. Now he’s a porter cleaning the bathrooms with severely diluted bleach. Wearing the same 3 masks for the last 9 months.
