The national and international statistics we are seeing around COVID-19 are alarming, and it's sometimes easy to forget that behind every number is a child, a brother, a mother, a father or a friend..

My wife and I were incredibly saddened when we heard the news that our lovely little neighbour Joe had been confirmed as having coronavirus last weekend, he's in his late seventies and had been housebound for the last few years; it's thought he contracted it on a trip out with his carers.

We genuinely feared that we would never see him again, but here he is being dropped off back home by a wonderful NHS driver, having beaten the odds and made a full recovery!

Over the flippin' moon!

Welcome home Joe ❤️💙

Edit: thanks for the gold, silver and heart awards kind strangers!

Yay! You go, Joe! Unfortunately a neighbour of mine passed today from the virus but news like this gives me hope.
