Update on friends vaccinated husband with Covid-breakthrough.
More prayers needed!!
In the vaccine thread I spoke about my good friend who had to take her husband to the ER and after many negative tests he was indeed found to have Covid. ( You can read about it in the other thread). It is a breakthrough case as he is fully vaccinated.
He spent Monday night through yesterday afternoon in the hospital where they treated his many leg and lung blood clots and worked to get his oxygen level back up in an ok range. He was sent home yesterday as he had been doing better and also coughing less and has an oxygen machine at home. His family inputs his readings to the hospital which monitors them.
Well this morning the hospital called and said to call 911 and get him in as his reading dropped to 87 on 5 liters.
So he is back in the hospital now.
She is very scared and upset. They have been doing everything right and this downturn is very hard on her emotionally. He of course is not doing well.
Please keep them in your prayers. Her 20 something year old son also has covid, fully vaccinated also, but he has a much more mild case. She has tested negative and feels fine.
In case any of you out there feel this virus is not going to bother you if you have been vaccinated, please think again. Delta is really an ass kicker. Wear a mask and don't take chances.
Actually my daughter and I saw my friend on Sunday for a few hours, 90% of the time was spent outdoors but unmasked because we were outside. I got the call about her husband being ill the next evening. Fortunately she was not ill at the time we saw her and she remains healthy.
Re-think all interactions you are having with others please. Even those who are vaccinated. I would do things differently now and it has only been a week. Lots of things and information happen in a week with this virus.
You can put pressure on friends and relatives by telling them you will not interact with them unless they have been vaccinated. That is actually working for some people I know personally. It is a step.
Also, lobby your school district and state governments to mandate mask wearing, especially in anti-mask states. Even if you don't have kids, your voice matters. Kids are also getting sick with this variant and your voice may make a difference.
Thank you!
Update again.
My friend's husband with covid-breakthrough has pneumonia. He is on his way home with 5 new medicines and will continue to be monitored. He had a second Cat Scan this afternoon. I believe his blot clots are continuing to dissolve so that is a positive.
@lovendures Thank you so much for sharing this information. We all need to be aware and hyper vigilant again. I hate that it’s come to this, but here we are, restricting our lives and interactions again. We’ve started mask wearing again (seems like we hardly stopped) and are social distancing. I’ve even decided to change hair stylists as my regular hair dresser refused to get vaccinated. I cancelled my appointment with her and let the owner of the salon know I’m not comfortable coming into a business where the staff is not vaccinated. We haven’t come this far to let our guard down. I appreciate your sharing this sad news and will pray for your friend. I’m so sorry.
I have been working with a gentleman, fully vaxed during his third week in a hospital. He is on bipap, not vent so far. I know four other people in his area with breakthrough but not hospitalized. Same in the Bay Area Ca. Fortunately, none here that I personally know are hospitalized just sinus like infection.
@lovendures praying for your friend's husband. Please keep us updated on his progress.
We had my brother's Celebration of Life event yesterday and it went very well. Having completed that step towards closure, we are now beginning the monumental task of helping his wife with his belongings. It is surreal being in his house. He had an extensive electronics lab, machine shop etc. and all this stuff is sitting there with lights blinking like it is waiting for its master to return. He had passed out at his computer and everything is sitting as he left it. It's rather heartbreaking. Our mom (Claire) and his widow (Ann) are holding up well--considering-- but could use some prayers.
May his memory continue to be a blessing. May his light shine on you all and guide you through this difficult process. May you find a wonderful use of all of his electronic items. may you feel his love, always. Hugs to you. Thank you for the update Ana!
Prayers for the comfort and wellbeing of your family @ana as you all work together for the Highest Good of all concerned. May you find Joy in sharing stories and memories of your beloved and comfort each other with the sharing of your grief. ?????
Hello my friends
I find that my illness has caused me to spiral down. I am recently caught in dark thoughts.
The dysfunction here is causing a deep depression. As people around me yell publicly EVERY day, I feel unable to ward off the negativity. I am witnessing emotional abuse. I have PTSD and listening to this, at such an angry high level, so often, is causing me to become ill, as my spirit will always seek to absorb the energy to protect a little one caught in this vitriolic atmosphere.
My energy is ragged at best. I've never been good at protecting my energy. As a sensitive empath, I am feeling that I must move, and soon. I have asked the Universe to present a place to go, where it is possible to have peace and quiet.
I feel the anger, frustration of people here. I FEEL the toddler's spirit, and see he is struggling. It is cringe worthy and becoming increasingly upsetting.
@ghandigirl Prayers going up for your becoming centered and focused on what is yours to do, what you can do... and your releasing that which you can not change. Prayers for the Highest Good for all concerned in this matter. May your answers be crystal clear and bring you clarity and peace. Amen.
Sending prayers & hugs to all who need them right now, like @ana, @lovendures, @ghandigirl.
Thanks to those who shared concern over the loss of my sister (@unk-p, @journeywithme2, @febbby23) As noted elsewhere on the board, I was given advance warning that we would lose her, so it wasn't a total shock for me like it was for the rest of the family.
Everyone take care in these troublesome times. Hang on, we'll get through it together.
Asking for prayers for @lovendures' youngest daughter (a college student; call her Meredith) who slipped and fell in the bathroom tonight and hit her head on the side of the tub, and lost consciousness briefly while alone in her apartment. They are in Arizona where the ER's are filled with Covid cases and they are concerned that when they get to the hospital, the hospital staff might not let her stay with her daughter while she gets checked out. Her daughter is having a lot of head pain. It's also not the first concussion she's had so she needs extra prayers. I don't know much more than that. But I know that your prayers will help her. And she asked me to post this so you'd send your amazing magical healing. Prayers also for Lovendures herself.
Thank you dear community.
@lovendures sending prayers and reiki healing to you and your daughter. May anything that needs correction heal quickly and completely. Namaste dear lady.
@lovendures, sending prayers of healing and comfort to your daughter and your family. I see her being held in a protective blanket of angelic light.
Sending a big hug to you, my dear friend.
Sending a prayer and healing light their way.
How did we ever get this community of loving people! It's a miracle.
@Lovendures I am praying for your daughter tonight. May she be surrounded by angels who protect and heal her. Much love to you, my dear, dear friend.
