For the first time since mid March...

For the first time since mid March,

I am feeling hopeful

Hopeful that we are moving in the right direction towards slowing the spread of COVID-19

Hopeful that in 2 weeks our state (IL) is moving towards phase 4 of reopening

Hopeful because for the first time in 2 and a half months, we have the lowest number of reported cases

This may not be over but I see a faint light at the end of the tunnel

Hang in there

We’ve been doing this together

We will continue to do this together

Please spread the hope and encouragement to everyone else❤️
