Re: not coping

Thanks @NatureLover @Eve7 I feel a tiny bit better this morning but still very lethargic. The cough and the blocked nose is abit better though and I finally was able to eat more then a piece of toast last night so I’ll take those as wins.

Re: not coping

I am glad you are feeling a bit better today @outlander

I have not done much today, just on the couch watching the tennis.

Re: not coping

Dear @outlander

I really do feel for you having covid on top of your existing health issues.

It is understandable that you are so lethargic.

You also mentioned not eating much.

All adds up and drains energy.

Can you request a telehealth phone consultation from your doctor instead of subjecting yourself to a medical centre and the trip out.

Conserving your energy for your new family member sounds far more enticing to me.

He or she is very taken with you.

I can picture the two of you interracting and that brings a smile to my face.

Look after Outlander please, bearded dragon.

Take care

Be kind to yourself.

Work will wait.

You cannot help Covid.

Covid goes where it pleases remember.

😊
