    Well when you really get sick our medical system is top notch

    Seems like I pushed a internal infection a little to far. It maybe was brewing for months were not sure.

    Last week I went for a Dr visit and she sent me right over to the General. Cat scan and slated surgery started taking on fluids and blowing up. Ct came back no surgery but a 9 on infection either ICU or 6.

    Full fluid IV plus morphine plus antibiotic one bag after another it gets blurry at that time line.

    We’re now over a week into it zero strength lost a ton of weight and food is finally moving to light solids.

    Point being to all this you never know when shit is going to hit the fan. It doesn’t matter how fit or healthy or strong you are one little virus can almost kill you.

    Covid 19 second test and second zero.

            Get well soon. We could use more Friday reports after you’re better.

                Wow, that can be very serious, best wishes. People complain about our medical care but every time we’ve needed emergency care, it was spot-on. 🍀

                  Downright scary and just underscores how fragile the human condition is. Thankfully your health system is not overrun by covid. In Manitoba we are close to capacity due to human carelessness . Please everyone do not underestimate containing this virus. Do not spread conspiracy theories or call it a hoax. Mask up when appropriate social distance. Get well.

                    I saw him yesterday, he's faking it! LOL.

                    But yup, I think the care in hospitals is generally very good. My Dad was just in there for two weeks. Lets just say he had some "interesting" room mates. ......how can someone who shits themselves treat the nurses so poorly who have to clean you and your bed up?

                    We treated the staff with the utmost respect and got treated very well in return.

                    They, the doctors and nurses, have done the best they can.

                    Get well quick SF3 and get the hell out of there.
