All Things Coronavirus Diaries
Because nothing feels real anymore and if I don’t blog about it, I won’t actually think it is happening.
I came home from work on March 6th after being short of breath all week and developing a cough earlier in the day and slept…woke up with a fever. Called doctor several days later.
Stay at home. Self-monitor. No test. Chronic Bronchitis? Flu?
After sleeping through another week and still having low-grade fever, called the doctor.
Stay at home. Self-monitor. No test. Chronic Bronchitis? Flu?
March 23rd, finally feeling better—-but the world as we know it is falling apart.
