Are you going to take away my plate and utensils, Times_Places ? It may be a good idea, because if I were to have a knife I may be tempted to stab you with it. And if I stabbed you, your blood would land in my eyes and burn them so I would go blind. We know your blood is toxic and made of acid. By not allowing me to eat, you are protecting us both.

It is with a heavy heart that we share the story of Cherita, a beloved Starbucks barista whose life was tragically cut short by COVID-19. Cherita's journey through this world ended abruptly, leaving a void in the hearts of those who knew her. Her story is not just a testament to the destructive power of this virus, but also a stark reminder of the vulnerabilities that can make us more susceptible to its wrath.
Cherita was a familiar face at the local Starbucks, always ready with a warm smile and a perfectly crafted latte. She had been working there for years, forging connections with regulars and newcomers alike. Her friendly demeanor and dedication to her job made her a cherished member of the community. However, Cherita's life was far from easy. She lived with her mother, relying on public transportation to get to work every day as she did not have a driver's license.
Despite the challenges she faced, Cherita's spirit was unbreakable. But COVID-19 doesn't discriminate; it exploits every weakness. Cherita's struggle with obesity was a significant factor in her vulnerability to the virus. Obesity, as medical professionals have repeatedly warned, can exacerbate the effects of COVID-19, leading to more severe symptoms and complications. In Cherita's case, this made her fight against the virus particularly brutal.
Cherita's mother, who shared their small apartment, watched helplessly as her daughter’s health rapidly declined. What started as a mild cough and fever quickly escalated into a desperate battle for breath. Despite the best efforts of healthcare workers, the virus had taken too strong a hold. Cherita's condition worsened, and she was eventually admitted to the hospital. The sterile, impersonal environment of the intensive care unit was a stark contrast to the warmth she brought into people's lives.
The days that followed were agonizing. Cherita’s mother was left to grapple with the grim reality of her daughter’s condition alone, as visitors were not allowed in the COVID-19 wards. Cherita was intubated, her body fighting a battle it was never equipped to win. The virus ravaged her lungs and compromised her organs, and despite the ventilators and the constant care from overworked medical staff, Cherita’s body could not endure.
Cherita passed away in the early hours of a grey, somber morning, leaving her mother to navigate a world that suddenly felt much colder and emptier. The loss was not just personal but communal. The Starbucks where Cherita worked mourned her loss, with colleagues and customers alike sharing memories and condolences. The corner where she once stood, bringing joy and caffeine to people’s mornings, now feels like a ghost of the past.
Her death is a sobering reminder of the ongoing dangers of COVID-19. It highlights the severe impact the virus can have on those with underlying health conditions, such as obesity. Cherita’s story is a call to action for greater awareness and more robust protections for our most vulnerable populations.
Cherita’s life was one of service and kindness, her presence a daily gift to those around her. Her untimely death is a profound loss, a tragedy that underscores the human cost of this relentless pandemic. As we remember Cherita, let us also recommit to the fight against COVID-19, striving to protect ourselves and each other, so that no more lives are lost too soon.
Rest in peace, Cherita. Your memory will forever be a beacon of the warmth and kindness you brought into this world.
