Two days ago my eldest daughter's heart stopped. a$$hole doctors said "she died". Well she spontaneously came back to life. She's been fighting a flu, pneumonia and the flavor of the decade Covid. Heart had clots which decided to go to her lungs. She's probably sustained permanent lung damage. Doctors treating symptoms and not putting a name on this. Yup, scary.

Prayers for a full and speedy recovery for her. This COVID, flu and RSV (and pneumonia) trifecta is so scary. I hope everyone here, their loved ones, and our UConn team stays healthy in 2023. Enough is enough. |

Rocky, how are you doing? Sorry, don't alway look here. Should always I know. The experts say this is a phenomenon associated with Covid. She spent 4 days in the hospital and is resting at home now. Her O2 is low and she's on oxygen. Trying to get a mobile unit, so she can go back to her classroom, but I don't think she's ready. They told her clots left her heart and damaged part of a lung and I suspect we are still finding out the implications of that. The clots are what stopped her heart. The sequencing of all that is a mystery. Will it return? How she lives with this cloud looming is beyond me. |

And sad that your daughter is going through this, too. Makes me wonder about these m-RNA shots we're getting. What are those side-effects? We really don't know long-term. Keeping you and yours in my thoughts and prayers.

Covid is a strange virus. This was revealed yesterday on whether Covid is a designer virus. Very scary facts. |

There is a lot of misinformation too. Hard to tell which is which.

And it's a really interesting maple sap season. Some days practically nothing, occasionally getting gallons from my 2 biggest sugar maples. I figure I'll be lucky to get a half-gallon or so this year.
I give them away as Christmas presents. Makes buying presents so much easier.
But it is a LOT of work.
