Used your daughter as an example this past week...On another board in a different universe, one of the members is a pastor in SW Mississippi. He had a pretty good round with COVID about four or five months ago. Every time he thinks he's doing well enough to do some strenuous work in his garden or around the house, he gets knocked back down. Last time was bad enough for a steroid shot and a Z-pack.
He can preach. He can pastor. He just can't do the physical work he would like to do. He's past the point of frustrated.
I just reminded him, there are lots of people in the same boat. Some people that are much younger and were pretty healthy until COVID came along. That have the same frustrations. That find some help in talking with other long-haulers within their support group.
People who occasionally have to be reminded to take it one day at a time...

Wow!! That is a such a tough path she has been on.
I am not sure that my positive thoughts will help, but I will keep sending them!!!

Word finding. Something that I feel is more difficult for me than it was before we got sick. And sometimes the wrong word comes out. I keep brushing it off as age, but then I read about the long hauler symptoms and I wonder. More migraines than before too. And losing track off/forgetting things I just did. (Like where I put stuff). Could be unrelated.

I've heard of the brain fog problem, as well as what D2 and Jodi describe. How frustrating this all is, and worrisome in many ways. It makes one question whether other thought processes are impared, and if one should delay making big decisions for a long period. Let's hope these are temporary effects that eventually will disappear, but in the meantime, it's both disturbing and annoying.

Damn, I am so sorry she has had such a hard time. Makes me really mad at the folks who keep saying '99.9% survive it'.
