It is, for sure, bad stuff. My oldest daughter is a RT at Beaumont Main Hospital in Detroit. Was ground zero back in March. They were working 12 and 16 hours a day. She had 27 vent patients alone. They lost a patient a day. She said it was like pure Hell. On a normal day she would have maybe 3 patients a day on vents. Stay Safe and God Bless....

Paul, I'm glad to hear that you, your parents, and your son are all doing well. I hope all of you continue to feel better and have a speedy recovery. Family is everything, it's great that you and your son were able to be there for your Mom and Dad.

Paul, I was concerned for you and your son but much more for your parents. My Dr. told me that at age 81 I would have a 20 percent change of not surviving it I were to contract the Covid virus. I am so thankful your Mom and Dad are doing well. My wife and I got to visit with them one time thanks to Woody Woodell. Carlene visited your Mom on the couch and the men folks had coffee at the Franklin table. A day we will never forget. Carlene said when we left that she felt like she had known your Mom for years, she was so friendly. I have prayed for the Franklins and this is great news. Have you been told anything about antibodies if you are protected from catching it again? That would be a great bit of news if that were the case.
Jerry

I am glad to hear the whole family is "turning the corner" on this illness. Thanks for sharing your story, Paul. It's easy to speculate and post opinions on Facebook - quite another thing to be dealing with it personally. I hope all who've read your report grasp how serious this can be, and make an effort to avoid it.

Any updates on Paul and Oleda? Darrell and Paul Jr. too, of course.

I think Paul's is the 3rd family that I know of personally that has been exposed this directly from home care workers, strangers from one house coming into another,,,the "bumble bee effect". I personally need in home help right now, and it is available at no cost, but I'm afraid to take the chance.
