“When my mother passed away about two years ago, I could sit with her … and I could hold her hand and caress her face, I could be present with her,” Farrell told CNN’s Don Lemon. Said on Friday. At night. “And I was able to comfort her in the same way that she comforted me many times in my life.”
“With my dad, we couldn’t do that, because he was alone,” Fair said.
He says his family was able to actually say goodbye to his father, Marvin James Fairy, the morning before his death.
“I’m glad I got to meet him one last time, to tell him how much I love him, how important it is to me. But at the moment, you want to be able to do what you want to be there Reach out and hold her hand, touch her, spend as much time with her as you can. “
Farney’s story echoes the experiences of thousands of other U.S. families who said goodbye to their parents, siblings, and other family members through a device due to the Covid-19 isolation protocol. More than 278,900 Americans have died since the onset of the epidemic.
Farr says the building’s anger, fear, frustration and frustration led him to write a powerful stance for his father, highlighting the epidemic toll and some Americans rejecting public safety measures such as face masks.
“He was preceded in death by more than 260,000 Americans infected with Covid-19. He died in a room that was not his own, cared for by confused and horribly equipped people. He died with Covid-19 and his last days. Were harder. Scarrier and lonely than necessary, “said an excerpt from Mriguru, read aloud by Lemon.
Her father, 81, was a veterinarian, Fair wrote. He writes that the science that guided his father’s professional life is now “based on his knowledge by many and has been abandoned.”
“It’s weird,” Farrell told Lemon, adding that some Americans seem to be rejecting the science done by leading health experts on the epidemic.
He says that when he was growing up, he remembers that medical professionals had a lot of respect, and doctors and nurses in his hometown were considered some of the most important members of the community. Now, the same people who are “risking their own lives” are being attacked on social media.
He said, “It’s inexhaustible for me, it violates everything. It seems like I’ve learned a lot about etiquette and caring for others.” “And this is the lesson I learned from my father.”
His father, he wrote, “After recovering from the Great Depression in America and facing World War II, most of us had a hard time imagining and sacrificing. Americans will be asked for the necessary supplies of rations and sent to their children. Around the world to die. “
He wrote, “He died in a world where many of his fellow Americans refuse to wear a piece of cloth over their face to protect each other.”
In many ways, Fairy told Lemon, he felt his father’s death was political.
“While our local city councils, while our state legislatures, are refusing to formulate policies that can protect the people, they have made political decisions that result in people like my father dying like them.”
