UPDATE: March 11 Just getting in here to update this. Austria just temporarily suspended the law that made jabs compulsory for all adults. So no fines will be sent out at the moment. They say they'll review it again in 3 months and implement it again if necessary. But we'll see, I hope by then the truth about everything will be so overwhelming, that they won't do it. I'll do a post later about everything.
Below is the post I wrote before the mandate was suspended:
They are keeping my spirit up. I'm perfectly content spending all my time with them. Playing with the cats will always make me smile and laugh, and their endless cuddles and head bonks will always fill me with calm. My husband Ralph is my best friend and my husband, and I'm so glad that's how it is. We're totally on the same page with everything.
I'm also so grateful for my best friend, we've been friends since we were 14. She totally gets me as well, and I'm so glad I have her. She's not well though, after her 2nd jab, her existing back pain from an injury has become unresponsive to her pain meds, and she's suffering from extreme fatigue and has only energy for a short time in the morning and that's it.
My Dad is now ill after his jabs, but he's not going to stop getting jabbed, due to the general mandate for all adults in my country. I'm also so worried that my friend will succumb to the financial pressures of these massive fines for not getting the 3rd jab.
I'm not really sure what will happen these next months. Starting March 15, every adult who hasn't been jabbed at all, or who's not up-to-date on all their jabs, will receive a huge fine. I wrote a long post about it all on my wordpress blog.
There was so much going on in these last months, it's crazy. I just felt uncertain if I should write about any of it, and so I rather stayed silent.
So many families and friends have been deeply divided now. It's so sad. It's bad enough that you have to be extremely careful if you write about these things online, but it's especially sad that people can't talk openly with their families and friends, for fear to be shunned afterwards.
But despite all of this, I'm just so grateful to have my little family. I am also feeling better, and now I am trying to do what I can to find a solution to deal with these insane fines for not getting the jab.
I'll start posting regularly and share what's going on. But our days aren't just spent being upset. They already took so much from our lives, all our lives worldwide. So my posts will be just that. Silly cat posts, and stuff about life and everything else.
I hope you and the kitties are alright ? My two kitties Hero and Lisa send their purrs and some head bonks to you all.
Thanks for stopping by! Take care!
