Nero 1,144 Report post Posted April 15, 2020 15 minutes ago, hoorta said: Been thinking of you too Nero, Spain is in a bad way. Hope you folks pull through this soon... Thanks! Everything OK here. My dad (73) is coughing since Friday and we quarantined him in his bedroom, but hasn't develop any other symptoms so we thing he got a cold (usually walks inside/outside of the flat and we are in a 9th storey in a kind of a cold town) A sister of mine in France spent 15 days alone really ill and is over it, though she didn't have the normal symptoms. This last month I've been doing all the errands, since March 12, as my parents are old and little brother has diabetes, so I'm the only one out of a risk group. And I've been extremely careful when hanging out. Quarantine is probably worse here because most of Europeans live in flats and it sucks not having even a small garden, but I can't really complain. Seems like we just reached the peak. Take care Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OldBrownsFan 2,888 Report post Posted April 15, 2020 I keep you in my prayers. You were very wise to have your daughter take you to get tested and get yourself in the hospital and not wait.

calfoxwc 4,165 Report post Posted April 15, 2020 I feel terrible. I'm making a bunch of wild blackberry jam today - and I could have sent Canton Dawg a pint of it, and it could have killed off the virus. My bad. Wild blackberry jam - was outstanding last year. A friend of ours has been getting sick...of being bored. So, I'm sending her my novel to read. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My fever is now non-existent, along with body aches. Congestion is improving, along with my appetite. However, shortness of breath is still a major issue. The doctors seem to think I have tiny blood clots in clusters inside my lungs. They are giving me huge doses of blood thinners via injection through my stomach. The hardest part of this ordeal, is lack of human interaction. I’m glad I have you guys around to hear me bitch! 😀 3 2 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

calfoxwc 4,165 Report post Posted April 16, 2020 Canton Dawg - you're probably pretty busy laying around in the hospital - but have you any idea how you contracted It? (Note to myself - sure, it feels goofy to wear a mask when going out - using bleach wipes on packages we pick up from the grocery carry out, and spraying my shoes when I get home etc... but more people were wearing masks to go into this popular grocery than I thought would be. The people working in them aren't though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
