Had my first CV19 related wellbeing check this past saturday. Family called to report that their 70 year old family member had not been heard from in 24 hours and that was unusual for her. She was allegedly confirmed to been diagnosed positive for the covid. Went to the house... found a package and mail from day prior still outside (mailman had not come yet yesterday). Looked in the windows... purse on floor, car keys on steps, plates and paperwork all over the place... Had fire bring me a ladder... tried accessing home from 2nd floor deck... locked but a look inside showed a tossed kitchen and tv room... Came down had fire break the window next to the door to unlock it... and she answered verbally. She has been sick for a week, the home was a mess because of how badly she felt. She didnt hear banging, yelling, doorbell , me on the deck, all the commotion that had the entire neighborhood outside, because she was sleeping that deep, and for over 15 hours. Initially tried to refuse ems... finally convinced her to go to the hospital with a promise I would secure the window and feed her cats... sigh. Went back in and fed cats from package that was at the door (thank God it was a Chewy package). Even with full gas mask and filter and full PPE suit still paranoid. Waiting for her test results is taking forever.

Update, recieved a call that her covid results are not in yet. But she is being treated for pneumonia. I was advised that had we not gotten her to the hospital when we did... the pneumonia was to the point she probably would not have made it through the night....

So a silver lining while I wait....received_947481119000571.jpg

Stay safe out there! I work for a medical/safety device company. Our manufacturing plant ramped up production from pumping out 40-50 vents a week to 500-700. We are getting orders in the thousands from all over the world. Personally, I'm working with a few NYC hospitals and designing solutions for their new constructions right now. It is a crazy time we are living in. ....with lots of crazies!

So a little follow up from my previous post...

I've been fairly confident that I did everything to protect myself as I wait for the results from the woman we found. Even with that "confidence" the paranoia does not stop. I'm checking my temp several times a day (I'm on my scheduled days off) and noticing every little cough and ache.
Nothing official yet, other than a message at my extension from her boyfriend who said she is being given the CV19 meds, and being treated as if she was positive... prior to a positive finding due to the pneumonia. Also, she just had a stroke last night and is not doing well according to him. They flew her out this AM to a different facility.

Idk why it's taking sooooo long to get these results. Spoken to the womans sister and she tells me that not only did she get tested when she was taken to the first hospital... but they tested her again when they took her to the second hospital... neither result is available yet!


Anyways... her sister advised me that they do not think she is going to pull through... her stroke was alot worse than originally thought. The pneumonia has effected both of her lungs and she is in an induced coma at this time...

Sigh... tick, tock, tick, tock

It didn't kill OCMD Fall 2020...yet.

I had a rental house booked for May and was able to get a full refund. I also just booked another house for the week for the Fall cruise. See you there finally???
