George, I didn't mean to sound negative. She's doing things right and taking care of herself, and she's staying in contact with her doctors and you. Even though it's going to take longer than she might have thought, she'll get through this. She's young enough to have the resilience of youth. It's amazing how much faster a person recovers at her age compared to ours.

@George-K Hugs to you and your family and daughter

[George K]

She had a televisit with her doc yesterday. He said that she should expect another 7-10 days of cough, etc. Fatigue will last longer, he said.

Tonight, this:

Anyone who says, "this is the flu" is stupid.

[Mik]

Jesus. I don't pray a lot, but I am for you and yours.

[Catseye3]

So sorry for this. I'm thinking of you both with concern.

[jon-nyc]

Wow. What Cats said.

Papa John's Pizza puts an Italian pepperoncino pepper in every box

I don't like them

But if they get on the pizza you can't eat that piece because it tastes like the stupid pepper

Not as bad as the covid pickles, but the same idea

God Bless her and heal her. There is nothing that weighs on the mind of parent like a sick child, no matter how young or old that child may be.

Hang in there, doc...

@George-K More hugs and positive thoughts

[kluurs]

Glad she’s got great parents in her corner. I’m sure that’s a comfort to her but hope she beats this down soon.

[Horace]

I think and hope that she will be ok. I'm sorry your family is going through this George.

+1 Hugs to you and Shirley as you keep tabs on your daughter. Wishing your kiddo relief and good health.

Yikes man... sorry to hear this. Prayers from me won’t do anything, but will be sending as many good vibes across the ocean as I can.

Update, George?

[George K]

Now two weeks after testing positive:

[Doctor Phibes]

Wow, that still sounds tough, but stable at least. Please keep us posted, George. Hopefully things will improve soon.

[jon-nyc]

Wow. ‘Hungry for air’ is something I remember well.

During my SIL's recovery, her cardiologist (remember, she had a PE and an anterior MI in the hospital) had her walk just a bit during the day, as soon as she was able. Very little at first, and always with someone with her.

At first, just across the house a few times a day. Later down the driveway to the street and back. In a month or so, she made it down the street, to the end of the block and back. As time went on, she did some treadmill work along with increasing her walking distances.

Now, she's back nursing, but it took months. Recovery was a slow go.

Most healthy people are used to bouncing back quickly from a bad cold or the flu. COVID doesn't always let patients do that. I have faith D2 will eventually be well, but I'm afraid she'll have to have patience. I also know it must be of great comfort to her, to have somebody to turn to that can help her navigate the medical process.

May God restore her health and heal her. I pray that it be quick and complete, so that she can get back to normal life with her family and the people who love her.
