Its was all going quiet well .
Double vaxxed , working from home. A few masked up supermarket jaunts to keep fed but to be fair going a bit crazy being stuck on my own all the time
Jagos was allowed to re open . The first couple of weeks were a bit of a stree but it is doing well
Then things started to open up a bit and I was sent 3 times a week to work on the Customer Services desk for the council in the local library .
and then I got covid
It has proper knocked the stuffing out of me . I was rather unwell for about 3 weeks . high fever and then the cough started .
The fever was constant and came with a recurring dream of a couple , man and woman who were sat on my roof on these purple throne type chairs . They could not explain what they were doing there. Everytime the fever kicked in at night , there they were trying to explain round and round , they made no sense.
Then the ghastly cough started and the hospital gave me a blood oxygen monitor everytime it was 92 or below you have to ring for an ambulance . Paramedic turn up first then if required they call an ambulance after putting you on oxygen and then you get carted off to hospital.
Each time I was held in a room on my own as I was Covid positive for about 8 hours while on oxygen . A rather peculiar oriental nurse kept creeping in and whispering to me that she knew about my secret drinking and that is why I was there. I did tell her multiple times to pick her audience as the last drink I had this year was on Christmas day to be sociable and it was a rather weak G&T as I was driving . on the third visit I threw her out of my room shouting
I (Cough) DON'T (Splutter ) FUCKING (Cough/Choke) DRINK (More hacking and coughing) GO AWAY!
At various points people would run in the room with a clipboard and shout HAVE YOU HAD A POSITIVE COVID TEST??!??
or 6 -8 by day three most of them done by you guys
They generally then looked a bit confused and shouted AND WHY ARE YOU HERE TODAY??!!??
Well you have me on oxygen as I have covid and my blood oxygen was too low
OH !??
and then they would leave , I asked if they could help with the cough they just looked confused I had asked a question and shouted NO!
After a while I just started to make shit up but suspected rabies , a second head growing in my armpit(Which also had COVID) and dancing malaria was completely ignored .
Usually at about midnight someone would come in and say you can go home now and would throw me out into the car park, coughing my guts up , Covid pos and 20 miles from home
After the third hospitalisation I just made up the oxygen and heart rate figures so they wouldn't come and frog march me into hospital again.
2 weeks on I am much better , Covid negative still got a bit of a cough and a bit short of breath
If you have ever had to clean a nightclub , on your own, with Covid......... not something I would ever want to repeat it nearly finished me off
Stay Safe all of you and catch us up on what you have been up to
