      My wife who battled cancer for 3 years and part of my absence on the site is a licensed medical care worker. She felt obligated to step in when things got bad out here. I didn't want her to but she felt she had to give back every day is one she did not think she had so she felt she had to return the gift. The hospitals are so short staffed she stepped in to help.
      She was on the front lines and got it and I was very careful at home but ended up with it also. I just hope we get through this and am I ever going to hit the reset button on life.

          Hi Eastcoaster,
          Keep taking deep breaths. Good luck and look after yourself and your wife. Hoping to hear from you and that you both come through the ordeal with flying colours.

            We all know there are people getting seriously sick from this but it's good to remember that wast MAJORITY of people will be ok.

            Hope best for both

                Sorry to hear. Today is my first day outside, Eastcoaster. Two weeks and one day. Same for my wife who is two days behind me. Scary and if you can monitor your blood oxygen that’s key. It does play mind games and is a roller coaster.

                Hoping you both recover soon. I’m going to be giving blood as soon as I am able.

                Best to you and yours,

                  Thank you all

                  Thank you all for the support.

                  Day 2 I have lost all smell and taste this is about 5 days behind my wife.
                  The hospital delivered an oxygen monitor all good on the levels today.

                  Thank all for the support

                  Steve please keep us posted on your recovery

                            We're pulling for you.

                            It's helpful to hear from someone who going through it. It's a big scary unknown for those of us that haven't had any experience yet.
