Where is Veronika’s Safety Net?
<p>Veronika, a Non-Hodgkin lymphoma cancer survivor, NCCS<br /> advocate, and Museum Educator, lead group tours of young,<br /> aspiring artists at the Children’s Museum of Pittsburg. In the<br /> cramped exhibit halls and close quarters of the indoor museum,<br /> she would feel the hugs of her young guests who greeted her as<br /> she prepared groups for interactive demonstrations. She also<br /> served as the front-line for the museum by being the first face a<br /> visitor would see. Visitors came to Veronika for answers.</p> <p><br /> Since Friday the 13th of March, Veronika has been furloughed<br /> from her museum and safely quarantined alone in her home. As<br /> a cancer survivor with a depleted immune system, she is at a<br /> heightened risk for a deadly infection if she contracts COVID-19,<br /> which would most likely cost her her life.</p> <p><br /> Yet, Veronika loves her job and finds her life purpose in her<br /> work, which gives her both happiness and security to pay bills<br /> and receive health insurance. But now, she fears her job will<br /> soon require her to go back to the museum, which in turn, will<br /> compromise her health and safety.</p>
