0:00.0	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 health care provider if an authorized
0:29.9	oral treatment is right for you. Learn about an option at treatcovid19.com. This message is
0:35.7	sponsored by Pfizer. Thank you for listening to this edition of the call of the day. Be sure to
0:44.0	listen to my program Monday through Friday now heard on Sirius XM Triumph 2011. Tracey,
0:50.6	welcome to the program. Hello. Thank you for having me, Dr. Laura. Thank you. What's up?
0:58.5	Okay, I started listening to you a little bit over a year ago and I don't even, I think I happened

1:24.8	and he's just sometimes would get really hard to live with. But I knew it before I married him
1:31.2	and he would be so wonderful to me that he had gotten into the depression and needed to change
1:37.0	medications and it was getting really hard. I thought, from now to dead, this is where I want to live.
1:42.0	I started listening to you and one day I walked in and he was already in that mood and I just
1:50.5	walked over and gave him a hug. I swear that changed our lives. I started listening to you more
2:01.0	often after that. That was just one day, one caller called and you said, just walk over and give him a hug.
2:06.8	I went from there and I have just really, believe it or not, controlled, not controlled, changed his
2:18.0	mood just because I'm sweet to him, I respect him. I let him have opinions where I was getting so
2:25.3	resentful. We have a wonderful marriage, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful marriage. We have sex again.
