So dealing with lots of emotions today, sadness, anger , disappointment to name a few.
A good friend from work got Covid a few days before I did this week but he has taken a turn for the worst. Blood clots in both lungs, uncontrollable seizures, fever etc. they sent him up to Yale last night. I’m no doc just a dumb firefighter but that doesn’t sound good. @NeuroRN thoughts. If he were trapped in a fire or pinned a car reck atleast we could help. Being totally helpless is not something a FF is used to especially when it’s one of your own. There is always a tool in the tool box to go to in those cases, but not this one.
Also I decided today to close my gym. 8 years of my life I spent building this and poof it’s gone! Can’t get good coaches to work, membership is down 50% all from this fucking virus.
So anyway that’s my load of shot for today .
Hope everyone else is having a better day!
 
Darn brother. Sorry about your buddy. I understand your outrage and feeling of helplessness.

Closing your gym!? WTH!
 
That’s rough buddy.

If it were my friend I would want to harsh truth, so that’s how I operate.

If he’s Not intubated already, sounds like he will be just for airway protection. The clots they heparinize hopefully, the fever is a cooling blanket and round the clock Tylenol, but the seizing on top of everything else is a bad sign based off what we’ve seen. I’m guess he’s been too unstable to scan.

I’m sorry man. That’s a shit combo that I personally haven’t seen many come back from with Covid.

And the fucking gym too.

You need a break. I need a break. Fuck this.
 
Yeah shit day. Can’t get any news on him. He and his wife just had a new baby girl. My fear is she will never know him.
I’ve been taking a beating financially and when I got the P and L form the accountant I’ve actually managed to go into debt now for this gym
 
No I did t think it sounded good. Amazing how this can happen to a young , fit, strong guy. Not a religious guy but at this point I’ll ask anyone for help
 
Unfortunately this virus can be dangerous for anyone who is at higher risk of blood claughts. That Tony Huge guy reported a similar story where he almost died due to blood claughting because of this virus. Lucky for him he did survive.
 
So sorry to hear about your friend. This Covid strain has no mercy I hate hearing these things it just isn’t fair. Your not religious, I’m not religious but I do believe God exist and I pray to Him and I will pray for your friend and his family. Guys like me need God. You know my messed up story.

My son just tested positive for Covid he been sick for a few days already. The wife and I tested negative.

I’m taking it along with C,zinc, d3, quercetin. She has not takin it yet
 
Yeah i wish I had an explanation for why it hits certain people the way it does. It doesn’t make any sense sometimes.
 
I wonder if blood type plays any role. My mom and I are O pos and she was totally fine and so far I am also. I’m 5 days in. My wife and my dad are B and my dad almost died and wife is pretty sick
 
I saw some blood types were worse when it first hit but not much since
 
I swore I heard people with type o blood are less susceptible to it because they have both A and B type antibodies or something? I think people with o type blood might have better immune systems in general because of this.
