I have a friend and he and his wife both got it.

My friend got a fairly mild case.

His wife got it bad. Almost 2 weeks for her and still going on. She is in pretty rough shape. In Indiana 11% of the people who get it end up in the hospital. Most people in the hospital with Covid are overweight by 20 to 50 pounds. Many have other issues like mild high blood pressure.

Just because it’s not as fatal as many thought doesn’t mean it can’t f’up your world. Do you want to pay the co-pays and non-covered hospital bills associated with a couple weeks stay in the hospital? If you are lucky you get a mild case. If you are one of the 11% that get it but that don’t get a mild case then it’s not quite so fun.

My son and his girlfriend have been quarantining for ~ 12 days now since she tested positive. He tested negative a day after hers and has not presented any symptoms or felt ill. Shes been kind sick, but seems to be coming out of it ok. Strange how one member of a household can have covid and another not catch it. She worked back office at a "doc-in-the-box". No direct contact with patients but lots of folks in the office have developed covid.

A neighbor acquaintance just went to the hospital with covid. She's only about 60 years old, but has other problems, severe obesity being one. Her husband, who just had knee replacement couple months ago, is still at home, so either didn't get it, or is not real sick.

Yeah, this is my fear, and why I'm quarantining so hard. I'm pushing 60, diabetic, obese, and have early stage pulmonary fibrosis, in addition to being on immunosuppressant medications. If I get Covid, I will likely get very sick and there is a very real possibility I could die. My mom is 87, has COPD, and has no one else to take care of her. At this point, my main goal is to stay alive long enough to take care of my mom, whatever that takes. After that, well, who really cares. I won't have anyone to worry about or anyone to worry about me.

We would worry.

Yes we would!

People here DO care about you Ms. SnappyD. You stay safe as best you can. You're a good daughter to your Mom, and that means a lot.

Guy at work told me to take it easy, so I wouldn't hurt my back.

I should have listened.

Week is almost over, and Halloween almost here. I've been told there is a Halloween light show by an INGO member so might have to check it out. If only he had a better youtube video of it...

Sounds like nepotism to me.

 

[Snapdragon]

Thanks, guys.

Act, that sucks. How bad is it?

I wish they would make storebought seeds that taste as good as homemade, instead of the dried out ones with an inch of salt on them.

Did the same thing yesterday. Hard to beat fresh out of the oven pumpkin seeds.

 

[Ballstater98]

One of the few things food-wise I look forward to annually.

 

[melensdad]

Last night we roasted a batch of ‘everything bagel’ seasoned pumpkin seeds

Thanks, guys.

Not real bad.
Just feels like a big old knot in the middle of my back.

By the way, the Halloween display IS running.
It just only has the main singer.

Was wondering, was by there earlier this week and seen it from a distance as I did not have time to stop and watch, too many other stops that day.

 

[chef larry]

Made it to another Friday.
