UPDATE: It’s excruciating for me to ask for help, but here I am. 🧡 If you’re shopping or for Giving Tuesday, may I suggest instead of donations to big non profits, you can give directly to disabled or similar folks in need? My wish list and story here:

@rliumd Exactly. How many died like my grandmother? COVID killed her but technically in the last week she tested negative and was moved to another wing while she transitioned over days. Her DC say’s cardiopulmonary arrest. COVID killed her. The point: COVID in undercounted actually.

Spouse has COVID since Sat. I set up Telehealth to get Paxlovid. THE PROVIDER PRETTY MUCH TALKED HIM OUT OF IT! Shared that it causes rebound & he’s not that high risk 😖 He’s 58, lifelong asthma, high bp (controlled), and has PFO (heart). What the fuck are we even doing? 1/2

Masking like a stubborn mofo! Let’s protect ourselves and our communities. I recently went to bloodwork in my N95. Two ladies were whispering looking at me then they put their masks on. Another woman in surgical asked me about how to get a better mask. 🤗

I wear a mask in public because Covid is NOT mild, it’s a dangerous level 3 pathogen, and we are still in an active pandemic. I want masking in public spaces, especially hospitals, so if you agree, show me your mask in comments, copy this and let’s see who’s out there. #MaskUpC19

Had ultrasound and woman in the seating area asked about my mask, “I like your mask. Is that an N95?” Well, yes it is! I asked her if she wanted one & pulled it from my purse. She was thrilled and told me her name. I coached her on how to put on properly. Gave her one more to go.
