Covid scare

September 6, 2020

This is NOT a good time to get sick….

Jamie was coughing quite a bit last week and by the end of week was starting to feel pretty lousy. On Friday night I woke up at 2am and he wasn’t in bed…. I assumed he went to the bathroom but 5 minutes later he still hadn’t come back!!! So the blind bat I am is trying to find my spectacles… ugh why is it SO hard to find my glasses when I need them…. most people put them on their bedside table right? Yes Kelly… thats what normal people do… Anyways I finally find them (on the floor next to my bedside table lol) and head to the bathroom. Lights not on and he’s not in there….. a normal person wouldn’t freak out and would continue to look in the living room right? Well…. I start freaking out…. I bolt to the living room.. like full ass sprint to find him laying on the couch…. PHEW!! …Apparently he couldn’t sleep in bed because he was coughing so much. Come Saturday I was like thats it… you need to be tested for Covid. I was pleasantly impressed with Convenient MD. It was so simple…. register online for a covid test and within an hour someone had called to schedule a Telehealth appt. Not too much longer he facetimed with a doctor who I really liked (Yes…. I was totally standing at the top of the stairs spying on their conversation and listening to what he had to say) …basically he was given 2 cough meds and an inhaler. The doctor then scheduled a covid19 test for him at the Bedford location. Jamie came home and was like OMG Kel…. it was horrible… they stuck 3 swabs up my nose and twisted for 30 seconds. I was like HOLY SHIT… are you serious?!?!? And he was like…. no. Bahahahha he totally got me!!!! He said it was SO easy though and not painful at all. It wasn’t like the flu swab where they go up the nostril…. it was just a throat swab!!! Sweet! SO….. Saturday night comes and hes doing OKAY….. I woke up at 12pm not being able to sleep for crap and noticed he was a little warm. I made him take his temp and it was 101….. UGH. He’s dying…. he’s fricken dying. And I am going to be a widow LOL….. legit thoughts that were going through my mind at 1am…. followed by intense Covid19 research on google. hahahaha! I was a wreck! ….the weekend went by and he was definitely sick… but the meds seem to help. Come Monday he had to go to work (The one bad thing about owning your own company ….and luckily he works alone). We also quarantined from friends and family for several days! All day I was SO anxious to get results even though I knew it might take a few days. Mid-afternoon Jamie sends me a picture with his results….. my heart starts RACING and then I see “not detected” in capital letters. THANK THE LORD  AND BABY JESUS I am not going to be a widow!!!!! hahahah!! But seriously…. I was so relieved… he hasn’t been this sick in a long time. And just an update… he is STILL hacking up a lung… but doing better! Nurse Kelly is on him about taking his meds (which he loves)!! 😬😬 

REAL QUICK….. my last youtube video was over a year ago. I stopped because…. well I stopped treatment and I figured there really wasn’t much to say or help others at that point. Well my hair is getting longer and I am having a lot of fun styling it (super quick—less than 5 minute kind of styles). Because you know… I have a 3 and 5 year old… enough said lol. SO I thought it would be fun to do some videos and continue my youtube! Maybe some hair stuff…. and then possibly share some “life after cancer” kind of stuff!
