Robin Featherstone s emotions make all the sense in the world. The Durham mother successfully recovered after a month-long battle with COVID-19. It s important to live life to the fullest, she said. This year was unlike any other. I think we ve learned to never ask: Can it get any worse?
Featherstone, the director of student activities and leadership at Shaw University, contracted the virus last March. I thank God every day that I m here and sometimes when I m by myself I get a little emotional, Robin said behind tears. To this day, she stills deals with aches and pains from time to time.
