I’m Sick Now

Don’t be scared

It’s mostly okay if I lie still and I can sit up a little bit. But my heart pounds pretty hard when I move. Leaning on the wall when I get up to use the bathroom.

Sleeping a lot. Think I’ll just close my eyes a minute and then it’s two hours later.

It’s true what they say about losing your sense of taste and smell. I could only smell a tangerine from one inch if I really sniffed at it. Couldn’t taste mint mouthwash or taco sauce. It’s like everything is sealed in plastic wrap.

Everyone is being so sweet and reaching out to offer anything we need, I just need my husband not to get sick.

Doctor said there aren’t enough tests, assume you are contagious, don’t leave the house, call if it gets worse 

Wash your hands

Take Tylenol

Drink fluids

I’m 44, I don’t have any underlying conditions, I am a marathon runner and a kickboxer, I am a tough lady badass!

Get out of my body, you stupid marble from hell

Readers, I love you, STAY HOME and be well

I know how I got this, I know who gave it to me, we were so careful. We bumped elbows, I was 10’ from the person who tested positive, we all wore hand sanitizer, we even took vitamin C packets. We followed all the rules, every person who met that day got it, STAY AWAY from people it’s the only way to stay safe right now.

I’m one in a million, so far I’m one of the lucky ones.

Wish me luck anyway, I could use some more
