In the stillness of a pandemic, silence became more than just the absence of sound-it became a companion, a burden, and a teacher.
COVID in Silence is a deeply personal memoir that follows one man's quiet journey through the shadows of COVID-19. From the early days of uncertainty, through the physical and emotional trials of infection, to the quiet moments of surrender in a hospital bed, Roel Alvarez shares his story with honesty, vulnerability, and grace.
As a frontliner in the background-working quietly in finance and administration-Roel faced the virus not in the headlines, but in the silent corridors of duty, discomfort, and eventual illness. With a soft spiritual undercurrent, this book is not only about surviving COVID, but also about discovering strength in weakness, clarity in pain, and faith in the face of fear.
Told in a quiet, reflective voice, COVID in Silence will resonate with anyone who lived through the pandemic, cared for a loved one, or simply tried to make sense of the world when everything felt uncertain.
This is not just a story about illness-it's a tribute to stillness, to love in silence, and to the quiet endurance of the human spirit.
