I need to go to the village fast and I am hoping for the lifting of Covid-19 restrictions as soon as possible because I need to see my mother.

A few weeks ago, I received a call from our neighbour that my mother had collapsed at home.

The next two hours were hard for me as I spent time on Google looking for possible explanations for slurred speech.

Thankfully, he answered my phone on the second ring and did not seem to have trouble recognising both me and my mother.

The priest called me back in less than an hour and said, “ Young man you need to come home.”
