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

2:00.6

And that has always been put first in our relationship. I feel like it's put on the back burner.

2:07.2

Well, then you have not been a very good wife.

2:11.1

So the number one thing you have to accept is you have not been a good wife. You have put your man

2:21.5

and this relationship is the core of the family. You have put this man on the back burner.

2:26.6

You have told him he's not as important as all the busyness and other responsibilities. When

2:32.7

in reality, the marriage is the center of the universe called family. So whatever you did to make
