60. Sincere sympathy
Sun Nov 29, 2020, 06:58 PM
Nov 2020

I haven't seen my family since Mid-March, when I moved my father in to assisted living. My father was diagnosed with Covid-19 a few weeks ago and hospitalized, but thankfully never needed supplemental oxygen. He has since been moved to a nursing/rehab unit, and is doing well. At first, after moving there, he didn't remember much - his children, his wife (he spent 60+ years with her). I think it was Covid fog. Two weeks later he is much better and remembers us. His younger brother, not so much. He was diagnosed after my dad, was doing well, and within 12 hours was dead. Had a Vimeo memorial service.

They were both in a really great organization, one that has also been controlling things very well, and still are, but have a few cases, which happened to impact us personally.

Sorry for making this about me, but my intention is to let you know that others have gone though this and empathize with you. I truly do, and send my love your way. While there is loss (like my uncle) there is also hope (like my father).

Please keep us up to date, and know that more people than you know are sending love and prayers your way.
