Very glad to hear, George and D2.

That is great news, fingers crossed.

Excellent news. Yes, she needs to rest whenever she can, which I hope is almost any time she wants.

Thanks for these updates, George. She seems like a sweet kiddo. Takes after her poppa.

She's the third doctor in the "K" family. Smart as a whip.

Fragile, but smarter than I ever was.

And, she understands statistics.

Glad she is starting to feel a little better. Glad you got her the pulse oximeter too. One of my art gallery mates and her husband just tested positive.

Thanks, @jodi !

How's Mr. Jodi doing after his experience?

(In the old days, a pulse ox was "cutting edge." Now, you can get one on Amazon for less that $40.)

Thanks, everyone, for your concern. I'm, of course, grateful!

She's now just about a week into the onset of symptoms. 5 days since her positive test:

Great. Except for the tofu stuff. looks and tastes like bird shit.

Happy to hear she is feeling better. Hope the recovery continues.

Her statement about finally being able to take a full breath is a kicker.

Tofu is good.

Maybe I was too harsh

Not bird shit

Maybe just bird vomit

Nah. Bird shit is the right color.

@George-K so far, he seems to be ok. He was in good shape before, which probably helped. But it was bad enough that he really does not want to get it again. He donated plasma awhile back. We are both going for a work provided health screening next week, and one of the things they will test for is antibodies, but I imagine those are long gone? I’m more interested than he is, since I never tested positive.

It's nothing more than a bad cold. It only hurts or kills those who are elderly with multiple comorbidities.

I hear that crap a lot, usually from people with no experience of a bad case in their family...

You talked me into getting one. Why the heck is my pulse only around 40?
