Dear Friends,

I’ve been a relatively healthy person my entire life.  I played baseball and football starting in little league and continued through high school.  Once I graduated high school, I was fortunate to play baseball at the collegiate level and eventually played for the University of Tennessee.  I was even drafted by the Anaheim Angels out of high school.  Later in life, I competed in triathlons and marathons.

But on December 29, 2020, everything changed. That evening I awoke with a fever and night sweats in my hotel room in Amarillo Texas. I was in Texas doing frontline crisis nursing, caring exclusively for Covid 19 patients. A few days later on January 5, 2021, I tested positive for the Coronavirus.  This was the start of my journey through illness and recovery from Covid 19.  I’m also a diagnosed Covid Long Hauler.

There is hope if you’re a Covid Long Hauler and continue to live with the after effects of the Coronavirus.  Studies show long-haul COVID-19 afflicts 1 in 4 COVID-19 patients, regardless of severity.  The Team Covid Long Haulers Foundation is here to help you and/or your friends and family members dealing with the day to day struggles of Long Covid.

Please learn about my story and how I’ve turned my illness into a commitment to help others. Covid 19 does not have to define you. You don’t have to be in this alone.  Become a part of the Team and live your best life yet!

Thank you for your support of any kind,

Travis Exum
