Confession: if my 26 year old can't move back to school soon I may lose my mind. She swears she cleans up after herself and I keep finding pots and pans she gets out, but doesn't use, on my kitchen counters every day.1

Hi all. I've been gone a long time. It's been a crazy, no good ride. How are you all doing?0

Consider yourself lucky if that is all she does. My son would cook a three course gourmet meal on the daily and cleaned NOTHING.
How much longer does she have to finish school?1 -
She has a year and we move her into her own apartment near the university on the 24th of July, Nicole.
It's like $20 more / month than a shared university apartment and she has control of who comes in and out.2 -
Prayers and positive thoughts please. My 87 year old dad has Covid. We are trying to get him transferred from isolation at his nursing home to the VA hospital today. He is 100% service disabled and his social worker is onboard, it just may not happen until tomorrow.5

Prayers! I hope he comes through ok.
My sister is waiting on a test to see if she is positive.1 -
We had a close family friend quarantine himself. He hasn't been tested yet, but he thinks he has it. Another man that was a schoolmate of my husband and is a LEO, is on a ventilator now with it.3

My sister is positive, but with very, very minor symptoms thankfully. I last saw her on July 4th, so I think we're good. Fingers crossed.1

That's awesome!0 -
We finally got Dad moved to the VA hospital yesterday. He has severe pneumonia, and I didn't have the heart to ask the doctor I talked to last night what he thought his chance of recovery is.
We did light the nursing home up because they didn't send dad's current medication list to the hospital. My dad is on sliding scale insulin and takes blood thinners. How in the kitten do not tell a hospital that?!?!?! (That little rant has nothing to do with Covid. It's just a general rant.)2 -

Confession: last Tuesday, when we got word that Daddy had Covid, I knew it was a death sentence. None of my brothers believed me.
My stupid brother who takes him to the doctor most of the time never stays in the room and listens to what they're saying or asks questions. I do and then he doesn't believe me because the doctors would tell him. Hey, dummy, they told me and thought you'd listen to a mom of 4 instead of blowing her off like a kindergartner. And then our middle chooses to believe him because life is more pleasant if Dad is not sick.
Today, a pulmonologist told the one with dad's POA who doesn't go into the doctors office and listen that Daddy's lungs were functioning at less than 50 percent before he got sick and are at 20 percent now. We need to override his full code status because he wouldn't survive being intubated. He won't die today, but he will probably die this week and I hate being right. I hate being right. I hate it for them because they have been in denial and now it's impossible to deny I hate it for me because I wasn't able to get in to see him during the fee days the nursing home was open because my test results didn't come back in time.
The last day I had with him was the 14th of March and it was a good one. The governor closed nursing homes to visitors the next day. The last words we will have said to each other are I love you. That's going to have to be enough for the rest of my life. And eventually, that will be enough, but tonight, I can't stop crying.

Melissa, I am so sorry. Your pain must be almost unbearable. As for your brothers - you did what you could do. Now they have to play catch-up with reality.
Hugs to you and your family!!!0 -

Let's wait until fall. The leaves will be pretty and we may even have a vaccine for the monster virus.2
