Pretty much guaranteed the whole family is infected now too as she came home from school 12 days ago from Saturday. And her 79 yo grandfather. Talking with her dad it sounds worse than a cold. I'm sorry to hear that, I'm hoping for the best for her and her family. 5 minutes ago, hayward said: Hope it's not life threatening for any of them Anler! My pop called me today with a sob story of why I dropped off stuff for them yesterday and didn't come inside to say hi to mom. "You should really at least call her!" WTF? He don't get it at all. He's a mental case over this non-socializing thing. I'm around strangers at work all day, i'm not setting a foot in their house, for their own good! Your dad's right about the phone call, it's good for the older folks morale to hear from the kids during these trying times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know. I forget sometimes that now they're in their 70's, and little things bother them differently . It's not her with the problem though, it's him. She's fine, I know it. He's sitting around all day worrying instead of visiting his daily people that he shoots the shit with. She's like me, naturally socially distanced. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are used to that though and do all these same precautions during flu season. I really hope this works out okay for them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably should be too. But I don't interact with public much in my job. One of the meds I'm on is an autoimmune suppressant so..... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J. Jackson Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 Best wishes to your family, hopefully everyone gets through it. To members that are infected or have family or friends infected would you update us on your health. I think many are afraid of the unknown. The range of stories going around is so varied that many just don't know who to believe. It would be great to hear from "real" people. Just a thought. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anler Posted March 31, 2020 Author Share Posted March 31, 2020 Thanks guys, I really appreciate it. I'll keep you posted as things progress but it'll be hard to really say how bad it is until the others start having symptoms. This girl is probably the most overly dramatic girl I've ever met in my life. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leave groceries and get halfway out the driveway. Dad comes out... we chat from 20 feet, then I go. I sucks. You can't be too careful , you're doing the right thing. My mom's 79 year old husband fucking forgets half of everything but keeps going to the supermarket and I keep telling her to go with the mask that I've given her or I'll go but she's like he's careful...he's careful, he can't even remember what the hell he's going there for.

One of my buds had his life turned upside down after getting bit by a tick at Kentucky lake. His body has been attacking itself ever since. He is a shell of his former self. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
