Found it hard reading the ‘Stay alert’ thread... 15:24 - May 10 with 3579 viewshoppy

As someone trying to cope with the situation in a position where my other half is in hospital...

In terms of business, the lockdown and business closure measures enforced on a number of my clients has been awful for my business, and would benefit from getting back to some kind of normality. Realistically that isn’t going to happen for a while.

In terms of my life, the relaxation of these measures and the blatant ignorance of the guidelines up til now could be very serious.

I’ve had the following updates from KJ this morning...

An update from Kelly, this from a couple of hours ago...

“I appeared to be getting better. I’ve woken up feeling a bit crap and it’s painful to breathe. Doc listened to my back and my chest and said I now have pleurisy as well as covid. He then squeezed my calves as he does every day and said the left one felt different. He asked me if the painful breathing came on sunddenly, I said I just woke up like this and now all I want to do is sleep and it hurts to lay on my back. Now I have to go for a ct scan on my lungs. I asked about the antibiotics and he explained they are not to try and cure covid as there currently is no cure, they are to try and prevent secondary infections. With my crp (infection markers) still rising he said he needs to review what medication Is going to be best. I’m not going to lie. I am scared, not for me, but for you, the boys and Yasmin xxx”

And this one a short while ago...

“I’ve got to have injections to treat possible blood clots on my lungs :( that’s what the ct scan is for :( xxx”

So I urge you, however crap the ‘be alert’ tag line is, that the meaning behind it is still very much valid. We’re not ‘over’ it yet... for many, the impact of this, and of people being selfish and lacking in any kind of ability to follow guidelines, it could be much worse and last a lot longer than the time we’re locked down, so don’t be fooled into thinking if you want to go against what they’ve said, it doesn’t matter, well it might! Please do what you can to protect yourselves and others.

So sorry to read this Hoppy. I haven’t been online much so hadn’t read this before.

Love to Kelly, you and the family. Please give her our best wishes and hope that she recovers quickly. It must be so difficult for you all having to rely on updates from the hospital and not able to see her.

Hopefully she will be back home with you soon.

I know you may get tired of people telling you to stay strong for Kelly and Yasmin's benefit and it is not easy to keep emotions in check at times like these so there is no blame in letting the tears flow now and again. Here's hoping for better outcomes for all three of you.

Sending all my love and strength to you, Kelly Jo and Yasmin. I would not know how to carry on if I was in your shoes. I so hope that she overcomes this. You are in my thoughts.

Tears are healthy. If you weren't crying now there would be something wrong with you.

I have them rolling down my cheeks reading this thread.

Continuing to pray for you all.

Mrs P continues to pray... When she gets up in the morning, before meals, before car journeys, before bed... It takes a long time to run thru the list of requests right now, but as she's met Kelly she prays for her.

So our best

Incredibly tough for all of you. I'm not someone who prays, but reading a situation like this makes me want to, because desperate to help & no real way of doing so.

Sending love to all of you, keep on fighting, beat the bloody bug - imagine it dressed in yellow & green & needing a bloody good kicking out of PR!
