19. I'm sorry for your lost.

We purchased those oxygen fingers indicators. I was ill for 2 week but never got under 95, and I was watching that because I knew if it started to go south then I’m going bad. I just was lucky and fought it out and lost 18 lbs. I was reading at the time people were coming to the hospital with O2 levels that aren’t compatible with life. I wasn’t even aware you can function at all that low. Before COVID I would have believed in the 80s were low.
