Now I have to wait until I can get a PCR test after 5 days and hopefully get a negative result back.

That is VERY good news!!!carlson1 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 11, 2021 10:17 pm I am back!!! My wife made it through like a champ. They took me from Baylor at Irving (went back to ER) they transferred me to Baylor at Plano. I am on oxygen for now, but at home. I have went from 4 liters to 2 liters now.
Your prayers are so much appreciated.
That story sounds like what happened to my family. Thankfully, I was not part of their grand family get together at Thanksgiving. All of the fifteen or so, including my 79 year old mother, who got exposed recovered just fine except my younger brother. He is 54. His lungs have been damaged by covid and is facing possible lung surgery to cauterize the areas that won't stop bleeding. His best case scenario is that he spends the rest of his life on an inhaler like an asthma patient. Covid is very random in whom it affects the worse.Keith B wrote: ↑Tue Jan 12, 2021 9:34 pm Glad to hear you are better and Mary is doing well. Prayers do work!
I did have Covid prior to Christmas. Luckily my symptoms were pretty minor. Got out of quarantine Christmas Day and went to th in-laws house. My sister-in-law was avoiding me like I had the plague, but I told her I was clear. The next morning (Saturday) she woke up with a slight fever and feeling bad. She went and got tested and was positive. She and her family all got exposed at her husbands family Christmas on Tuesday before Christmas. Apparently someone there was asymptomatic. So, with their party and then our Christmas gathering, we ended up having about 20 total people come down positive with symptoms. Luckily, everyone has had minor issues, and no respiratory problems. Worst problems have been with my wife’s parents, who are mid-to-late 80’s. They have been fatigued and had stomach distress, so won’t eat like they should. Have to make sure they get nutrition and stay hydrated.
Anyway, that’s how easy it is to spread to a bunch of people quickly, even if you have no symptoms.![]()
