My Son Has COVID

As of today he is feeling better. His symptoms started out like a mild cold and over a couple of days worsened. He also lost his sense of taste and smell. His biggest complaint was a lot of coughing. He hasn't needed to be hospitalized, thank God but at one point had a temperature. My DIL was working to get that down and was successful. But it seems now that she's probably infected because suddenly two nights ago, her sense of taste was gone. She said my son has been doing a lot of sleeping/resting. A friend of mine who had COVID early on said that's a good thing to do. My DIL was due to get tested yesterday but her ride never came. Today she felt a bit weak, plus she has problems with her knee and has a lot of steep steps to maneuver so she thought it best to stay home.

My son and my middle grandson visited me two days before his symptoms started. I had told him about 6 weeks ago that since he was attending music festivals (not as packed as concerts), some outdoors, that he'd have to keep his mask on when he visited. He respected that and kept his mask on the entire time he was here. My grandson did too except for while we were eating during which time we were somewhat socially distanced. So far I have not experienced any symptoms and my exposure to him was 11 days ago. I went and got COVID tested yesterday and should get my result tomorrow or Friday at the latest. Well so much for quarantining. I had to go out to get tested.

So I'm asking those of you who pray to pray for my "Babies" please. Or send up positive energy. All good vibes accepted. Thank you.
 

I'm very much hoping that your son and DIL will both improve, very soon, and both be feeling much better before too long. And that your grandson and others in your family and their friends, will be well.
And I hope you will not get any of it, our dear friend, Diva.
It's a stress, for sure.

Marci, the loss of a mother is terribly hard at any time. Your grief is a measure of the great love you have shared and I hope you can find solace in the lovely and loving memories of the dear woman who has been so important to you. She will never leave you. You will always carry her with you in your heart and in your mind. Peace be unto you and your family. Amen.
