This is Dr. Laura. The call of the day is coming right up after this message from my sponsor.

0:06.7

I wanted to know why some people who get COVID-19 get it so bad.

0:10.7

I found out it may be because they have a high risk factor, such as heart disease, diabetes,

0:15.6

being overweight, smoking, and asthma. Even if symptoms feel mild, these factors can increase your

0:21.7

risk of COVID-19 turning severe. So if you're at high risk and test positive,

0:26.2

there are things you can do, like asking your healthcare provider if an authorized

0:29.9

oral treatment is right for you. Learn about an option at treatcovid19.com. This message is

sponsored by Pfizer.

Hi Dr. Laura. Hi. Hi, Trey. Hi Sarah. How old is everybody? I'm 33. I'm 37. How long have you been married?

1:59.6

what about the new home? Are you head butting? Finding a home where both of our needs are met.

2:09.0

Well, that just means there's no reason to be butting heads. I have already solved your problem.

2:12.9

You can't get a house until you find one that meets both your needs. That's it. Right. So that means

2:22.0

if you haven't found it yet, there's no reason to be turning on each other. There's no reason to be

2:27.6

claiming that the other one is demanding too much or sacrificing too much. It's that you find

2:32.3

something that works for both. That's what a loving marriage does. I have told people this for decades

2:37.6

now. Big decisions have to be in total agreement. I agree. So you haven't found the right house yet.

2:49.7
