    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      D2 and I have eaten at La Merenda a couple of times before concerts. It's a nice tapas-type place with a really varied menu. Something for everyone.

      So, last night, she went there with a friend.

        Sounds like progress. Progress is good.

                What about smoked or barbecued meats? Lot of flavor in those...

                          @LuFins-Dad breathing sucks. Carrying groceries upstairs is an effort.

                          Overall energy is OK.

                            Has she considered contacting Mayo for a consultation? Maybe they have worked with some of these cases and could offer help.

                              Steve is also having terrible trouble with smells. It started last fall after we think we caught both Covid a second time. He lost smell and taste, now his taste is at back to about 50% and things smell really weird. Like he can’t cope with coffee anymore, it smells terrible, not at all like coffee. And all of the sudden he’ll get a really strong smell that he’s never smelled before, they sometimes makes his eyes water, sharp, irritating, burning metallic smells. He says they are hard to describe but it pretty depressing.

                                  That’s disappointing, especially with the breathing troubles still. The things we take for granted…

                                          Thanks for asking, @taiwan_girl !

                                          Overall, she's better, but far from good.

                                          Shortness of breath continues to be an issue, but she's doing exercises to build up stamina. Last year a flight of stairs was daunting, but, with exercise and training (going on hikes) she's doing better.

                                          Last weekend she went to Holy Hill in SE Wisconsin, where she climbed up to the scenic tower.

                                          Smells continue to be an issue as well, but slowly, slowly getting better. Parosmia is a pain in the arse.

                                          Screen Shot 2022-09-13 at 2.03.53 PM.png

                                          Foods have to be spicy for them to taste like anything other than cardboard.

                                          So, overall, better. But, still not good.
