Thank you to DU

for your response to my cry in the night. In between visits to bed, I've talked to my daughter today. She is depressed but still asymptomatic and I hope she continues that way. I don't know why she wanted me to keep her test results under wraps. There is nothing shameful about testing positive unless you're one of those deniers who're determined to go maskless. She has done everything she could in her situation to avoid infection and to avoid infecting others unknowingly.

I have opened up to my closest friend and I'm going to talk to my sister. They are showering me with food, which is good, because I don't feel up to cooking. Another friend sent me comfort food from Panera yesterday.

And then I have all of y'all. Thank you.

J

2. I have been one of the most careful

and isolated people in the US.

masked and wipes, working from home. limited trips to the grocery store.

I still came down with the virus by allowing one unguarded moment at an outdoor ( tent ) restaurants. milder symptoms than most but my blood oxygen dropped to 90 for a day or so. In the 10 weeks since I have recovered slowly.

3. I missed your first posting. I am so sorry.

I can't imagine how you put one foot in front of the other with such heart break. But I'm glad that you posted here. This is a loving place to share both good times and bad. Peace be with you.

4. Hope you're sleeping well tonight and glad you have such

caring support at home. Your daughter will almost certainly be fine. In spite of the bizarre negligence and craziness that's enabled, it's a great blessing.
