Update on my friend Jimmy - COVID 19 survivor
He is back in the office getting his stuff back to running right after 60 days out.
I sent him an email about how hard it must of been to pry him off the couch. That of course was a joke - He spent 12 days on a respirator and 17 days total in the hospital before being sent home.
Here is the story if you want to read it - https://www.democraticunderground.com/100213331589
Here's his reply:
It's good to be back, although I didn't spend much time on the couch. I've been walking, up to two miles a day now, and going to physical therapy 3 days a week. I'm exercising 5 days a week on my own too. It's taking a lot to restore my strength and stamina
I want to point out that Jim NEVER smoked, stayed in pretty good shape and hardly drank a drop, and he still almost died and took 9+ weeks to recover.
I have a hard time not spitting into the face of people who say NCV 19 is fake.
After all I have few enough friends that I can't take almost losing one lightly
I won't see him in person until the all clear - our command is capped at 50% in office at a time (5 days teleworking out of 10 duty days) and we are on alternate days.
Any way. Happy news
