Jason has pneumonia and is currently being megadosed with antibiotic via IV. If it doesn't respond the next stop is a ventilator so please make a special point of praying for him tonight. The other friends sound like they are experiencing the same thing only milder at this point.
I have read that bacterial pneumonia is a common sequel to Covid and often what kills people in the end. Just as it was with Spanish Influenza back in the day.
Kelsey is feeling better and sitting up in bed. Carl also feeling better and I talked him out of going right back to work. He was particularly reluctant to take IVM ("hard pass") but obediently started taking it yesterday - "to please dad and wife" - when his sister arrived to be the family's Angel of Mercy. I told him that taking Ivermectin was like Pascal's wager with medicine: if it doesn't work there's nothing lost and if it does work there is much to gain.
Kelsey went into the hospital last night suffering from dehydration and as it turned out, pneumonia. The doctors are concerned that her blood pressure remains low and there are indications of blood clotting so they are going to give her a CT scan to see what's going on. She had gone off the IVM a few days ago to try a homeopathic concoction.
Carl is still doing well but we are concerned about him getting over tired - he was up quite late at the hospital. Our daughter is there to care for their 3 kids and so far is symptom free.
A friend of ours an Orthodox Priest, obtained some ivermectin pills from India. He drives for the Amish and he's been around sick ones recently coughing and hacking and now our friend is getting symptoms himself. So he started taking the ivermectin pills from India.
He hasn't been tested yet to even know if it's covid. Another Orthodox priest friend of ours got covid about 3 weeks ago and so did his wife and it was nothing but a mild cold for them.
I am not liking what I'm observing in the hospital. For some reason they made an exception for me to visit my husband maybe because of the way he is and was, and his vision handicap. I don't mean to be critical towards the people that are risking their lives with covid patients but they certainly aren't doing what they could be doing to get them up and moving. I know for a couple days the doctor put a order for physical therapy they brought a walker in to get my husband up and moving which you need to do with the hospital patients and nobody shows up when I walk by the nurse's station they're all sitting around on their computers and I see them texting on their phone. At most a nurse spends about an hour with my husband a day. the food they bring is horrible non-nutritious filler. They don't give vitamins or anything that looks to be healthy and apple yes. My point isn't to be critical but I am realizing if you have a loved one in the hospital they need an advocate asking questions and sing to it things that are ordered really happen.
