In this situation, everyone would love to spent time with their loved ones and know them better. Plunkett is no stranger to that. Though, he is unsure when will he see his wife again, he is at home, hoping for the best.

“I’d love to be with her,” he said. “We are used to this situation. When someone takes something away from you, you want it more. We know we won’t see each other for a while, we don’t know when we are going to be able to travel to one another. That’s the unknown. It could be six months or longer. You think the worst, hope for the best.”

 “What’s going on is shocking, but what can I get out of me being alone?” he asks.
