My dad fell Sunday and I found him on floor.
Took him to ER and they swabbed him. Before noon.
Went yesterday during Covid visiting hours, 3-6 and he was asleep.
Room door open.

Hospital calls today saying release for PT may need plan B, as the facility we discussed has limited Covid beds.

???

Yup, today, at noon, they tell me he's Covid positive.

Since I spent more than 15 minutes with him, getting him to ER..........I have to quarantine.

No symptoms.
Not hungry, but that's just stress.

Sis flew in from CO to see him, since a fall can kill an old timer and his health been getting bad last couple months.
Now that hes positive, no visitors.

What a clusterfork.

Guess she flew in to see my cousin.
My youngest may have already had it about a year ago.
But her immune system is crap.

Hope she doesn't get it. See what happens.
Im gonna hang out in back room for next 2 weeks.

Keep ya updated.

Good grief

How did he catch it? Been homebound except the ER

Sux!
Hope the old man weathers everything okay!

Do they think maybe his fall was related to low oxygen?

What a drag. Hope all turn out ok.....

Sorry about your Dad. Tough times for your family.

Prayers for you and your Dad.

Best of luck to your dad you and family hookeye.

Thanks guys. Hes 80 and has been falling now and then since summer.

So his spill and weakness was not out of the ordinary.
Just seemed like a little worse.

His GF died years ago and around the holidays he doesnt do well.

He did set up at a gunshow Nov 14/15.
So maybe got it there, or gas pump handle or ?

Totally spaced Covid since the event was not out of ordinary.
We are not under lockdown.

My sis he hasnt seen for yrs, i told her he fell Sun and she just flew in from CO.

I did not know he was Covid positive til today at noon and she had just landed.
Now they say no visitors. Maybe theyll.let her gown up?

What a clusterfug.

My kids were gone all weekend and didnt come home til late yesterday.
I talked to one from a distance for 5 mins.
The one w health issues

Everything be OK if she doesnt get it.

Me? I dont care.
My dad?
His quality of life aint so hot. This would be a good exit.

Just being realistic.

Worry abouy others in my fam getting sick.

Back in Jan my middle and yougest were really sick.
Not pneumonia or strep.
Maybe they had it.

Youngest has had two medical procedures, swab tests negative. Not had antibody check

Holler at me anytime, If youre bored man. Tomorrow is D-Day on those pics you sent me. Haha

I’ll copy paste you on the text messages from that dipshît kid we’re fixin to catfish. 😃

I have a dull headache and havent eaten but thats just weather and stress.
Doubt id get covid from the old man or hospital in 24 hrs.

But then again, i could get it anywhere.
Half the people not masking. Half of those not wearing correctly.
And pin pads, restaurants.....many barely doing masks, certainly not cleaning pin pads, doors or even tables.

Half arsed at best.

Whole town should be infected if as bad as claimed.

In my limited experience fun shows are filthy places with a lot of respiratory challenged people hacking and coughing and gagging, and this is under non-pandemic circumstances.

Who gave you the quarantine order, the local health department?

I work for a big company.
Daily questionnaire....one question is

Have you been in close proximity for 15 mins or longer w a covid positive person.

Answer yes and you cant come to work

Been a bunch get covid and a bunch quarantined that never did.

My sis might get to see him, from a distance.
Dunno yet.
Hospital maybe gown her up or ?

The CDC rules are absolute horse$h!t. If I test positive =10 day quarantine, but if I loose 100% taste/smell, report it and presume positive, its 14 day quarantine.

Ask me how I know, lol

My taste and smell are fine
So far

Hell ill proly piss my pants laughin.
See if sis can swipe me a hospital gown

I hope the best for you and yours.

I havent eaten for over 24 hrs
But thats just stress.
Can lose a few lbs anyway.

Weather was icy/ rainy so that explains the normal low headache i have.

Had one off and on all gun season due to crap weather.
Will be camped in back room of house for 2 weeks.
Gonna suck.

Even if i stay healthy.

Just worried about my kid.

Wish the hospital said something monday. Could have avoided some risk.

Kinda like no big deal to them.

Maybe for most it isnt a big deal and everything is cool.

Heard about somebody I know getting it. Rough week of fever anf cough and then pulled out of it.

On the bright side, maybe get a mild case and just be done w it. Or be the 85% that cruise through

Gunshow exposure big time.
Especially if he set up a table .
100,s of people constantly walking by and stopping.

Hope he pulls thru all this.
You should be fine if it manifest in you.
cold/ flu feeling mild to bad.
Pretty sure I had it back in mid to late sept.
Buncha guys on here on a thread discussing it.

Felt like the worst cold I ever had.
Ate 4 designer ice cream cones the day I really felt fugged up oncoming symptom wise.
Couldnt taste the 3 chocolate varity ones.
Barely could taste the strawberry one after I ate the outer core to get to the strawberry center.
Pissed me off... spent 10 or 11 bucks on em.
And knew they was good tasting but couldnt taste schitt.
That was my C19 test. LOL!!!


Sometimes elderly just refuse to listen to anything anyone says to them for their own good.
And their is nothing you can do about it most times.

The skank wouldnt even let me play w her tits when she got out of the shower.

Them aint ice cream scoop bewbies either.
Never were.

But titties before I die would be a good thing LOL

Designer ice cream and couldnt taste it?
Im lactose intolerant but damn id be pissed too.
Had a drumstick cone yesterday......doesnt make me sick if limited to that amount.
Tasted fine

My covid test was taking a big.whiff of cleaning ammonia and smelling nothing...

Two days of tired and achy was it for me...

I got the covid from a really tired co worker in my truck, for the whole day, It took about 3-4 days for symptoms to show up in me. It took me about2.5 weeks to get over with head aches ,eys were burning and sinus congestion. My wife got it from me and did better except one night she did have trouble breathing. Drink all the water you can and zinc and other cold type cures seem to lessen its effects. I took longer because I have since found out that I have cancer in my neck which was taxing my immune system . Relatively simple surgery will be its cure God willing.

Good deal. Hope thats the worst it hits my fam

Sorry to hear that man. I’m in the same boat right now except my whole (at home) family has it; my wife, our 18 yo son, and I all tested positive. Our 13 yo daughter and 16 yo son have had it but not tested. Our 22 & 26 yo daughters don’t live with us and have this far dodged the bullet. Wife has been hit hard like a severe flu

Not exactly sure when my quarantine ends but only a few days in and it’s driving me nuts. Friends and family have helped us w/ groceries and I’m doing a fresh neck roast in the crock tomorrow but my taste is pretty handicapped right now so the joy of that is minimal.

I may have to slip up north and check in on a buck I located during gun season when I brought this home... pretty sure it was a couple buddies at deer camp but I’ll not give that up for a flu bug. Now I feel a little badly since my wife is getting hit so hard.

Lol

Ice cream scoop bewbies still wont guarantee a trail cam hit list buck. Hahaha

You are a cruel mofo 😂

All the best to your dad and your daughter.

The inability of family to visit their loved one is an often overlooked impediment to a quick recovery, in my opinion. I believe that love is not just an emotion but an emotion with curative properties. Anticipating a visit from you or your sister could be enough incentive for your dad to “hold on”, if there are enough of those “hold on” moments before you know it you’re over the worst of it.

We dealt with my father in law and his Alzheimer’s for years until it became unsafe and we were forced to put him in a Alzheimer’s care home. He couldn’t remember much but he anticipated our visits and I think that gave him some extra time. When this Kung Flu hit we couldn’t visit him and we saw a rapid decline in his overall health. At the end of this journey we knew that he didn’t have long and we dearly wanted to visit him so I arranged a “compassionate visit”. They allowed 2 of us at a time in the room with gown, gloves and mask but that was for the protection of the other residents of the home, not him. We spent all day there rotating in and out, we were all able to spend time with him to say our goodbyes....that was for us since dad was unconscious and his breathing was labored.

I hope your sister is able to visit him and that gives her some measure of comfort and peace.

All my best.

Thanks.

Hes 80, dunno if he has it and is on the mend.... or is going into the gauntlet.

Sis was full PPE and was allowed to talk to him from a distance. For a short while.

He was more concerned w bills and having his sports channels turned off. WTF?

Old people LOL

Called him and told him to chill, just rest and heal up.

Asked my ex who she will sell my guns to when I die from this crap.
She didn't think it funny.

I should proly update my who gets what list.

Your ex is gonna sell your guns?

Maybe, if I die LOL.............she lives w me and the kids.
Long story.

I tried to make a joke about it.
She did NOT think it funny.

You can keep banging your ex, don't have to remarry em.

Actually my daughters know a bit about guns and values and know what I have so it's no big deal.
Aint got that much.

Oldest proly get the Colt Commander though. Just for being the oldest.
Shorty would grab the HK P30L, since she likes firepower.
Rifles my hunting bud is my cuz, so would proly buy the long guns off em (at proper value).
Hes solid.

Been hunting together since we were kids. Hes got more crap than me anyway.

I'll update my list w serial numbers and current market values.
Gimme something to do tomorrow.

Doesnt seem all this masking and quarantining is doing much to reduce the rate of the recent "Covid" explosion.

If my ex lived with me I'd be hoping the libs were right about COVID.


Hope your dad works it out. Dads are great.

I'd be getting him to a dr who treated with Hydroxychloroquine, zinc etc or inhaled budesonide or to a vet who would give you 4 ivermectin tablets for your dogs worms.
