About the Author
The accounts of Captured by COVID are true; every line, word, letter…. The images, smell, feel of everything was and still is vivid in his mind; yet he struggles to talk about this ordeal with anyone. He chronicled every thought, vision and smell, right down to the color of Sara's lipstick, as a means to help cope with his Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
For a long period of time, he didn't know who he could trust or who was behind the conspiracy to end his life. It was several months and the writing of Captured By COVID before Mike had the courage to talk about the horrors he endured.
Survivor's guilt hit him hard and has been the single most depressing experience. Mike continues to question God... “Why me?” He knows that God brought him back for a purpose, what other explanation could there be? Mike is still looking for answers as to what that purpose may be.
Captured By COVID is not an easy read. You will experience a variety of emotions; sadness, anger, fear, laughter, hate and shame. However, in the end you’ll be glad you read it.
