Last time Eva Hagberg checked in, she’d just gotten her positive COVID-19 test. Three weeks later, she fills us in on the most harrowing medical experience of a life filled with harrowing medical experiences (seriously, read her memoir). We talk about her attempts to cope with the virus without going to the hospital, the system-wide assault the virus conducts on body and mind, how the experience may change the pandemic novel she’d started writing in The Before Times, and more. Give it a listen! And go read Eva’s memoir, How To Be Loved!
You can listen to all these COVID Check-In episodes at The COVID-19 Sessions.
