i was in hospital 21 days with the covid viral pneumonia . they had me on 20 litres O2 for a week. my Dr had covid 2x. wouldn't take the vax. most of the nurses i talked with wouldn't take the vax. this was my 2nd round of the covid. still won't take the vax. i went from 175 pounds to 149. still feel crappy.

Closest I came was last month my GF tested positive, had cold symptoms only, quarantined for 2 weeks. A-ok now. Scared me so I immediately got the swab-up-into-the-brain test, negative results, and stayed away from her the whole time. I figure the odds of anyone getting it are pretty good overall, and depends on physique and vaccination as to how bad it'll be for you.
Whiskey helps. Preferably single malt scotch, but Irish will do in a pinch.

I might be heading for the Wellers Special Reserve. Talked to John this evening and he sounds like crap. Chills and sweats. He went and got the good test, we will know tomorrow. My daughter made an appointment for me tomorrow. I went and picked Grammy up and took her home after dinner Thursday. 89 years old she doesn't need this bug.
I'm not greedy, I just want one of each.

I was watching something on TV the other day and there was a doc on that essentially said everybody on the planet is going to get this thing at least once sooner or later.

It's a weird one. Don't know if I should describe it as your body attacking itself or being poisoned. One thing I'll tell you guys is stay the hell away from crowds. I hadn't been anywhere in almost two years until this gun show. Boy do I regret it.

my test came back positive for covid today.
Since I'm not long for this world, how do we want to divvy up the Savages? LOL Since you mentioned it, I will take that really cool stubby 358. You will get better fast. God bless

Get well Roy, I really enjoy your posts and pics. You are one of the "Good Guys" in my book. I'm so glad we got to breakfast with you and your wife when we were in Oregon.

Rick just send a copy of the FFL you want them sent to and you can distribute them as you see fit. In the off chance I survive the Big Scary Virus, could you send me back one 284 to kill things with? I trust you.

Just think of timed screws and you'll get well quick.

I retired April 30th and was as sick as I have been in my life! Got tested and came back negative, doc said I had influenza, It took almost 2 months to recover. Fast forward to last week of August and my wife and I both got sick and tested positive for the china flu. She just had a slight cough and runny nose, mine turned into pneumonia in both lungs and a cough that wouldn't quit! I was coughing so hard I thought my liver blew up. Went to the E.R. and the doc thought bad gall bladder, found out I have inoperable liver cancer and blockage in my heart arteries. Got over the rona pretty good but have a steep uphill battle to face still. It hasn't been what I had in mind for retirement so far but not giving up yet! Went to all my normal haunts today looking for more 99's to add to the collection but the cupboards were bare. On a positive note I did find 300 small pistol primers!

Chris57, so sad to hear your recent diagnosis. You’ve worked hard to reach the fun time of retirement - fight hard so that you can enjoy the fruits of your labors. Find some more 99’s. Hunt. Shoot. Enjoy your family. Praying for you.
