Thank you all for the prayers and thoughts. Yesterday was a good day for me but today is a bad they say that’s how this Virus works talk to you guys later.

Lee, do not ignore breathing difficulties. GO TO HOSPITAL if short of breath. I've lost two friends who thought they could power through, both under 60 yrs old. You & your daughter are in our prayers. PaulE

Another one telling you to heed Paul’s advice. This thing can creep up on you quickly so keep your eyes open and don’t take chances.

 

[Graeme C.]

I'm hoping you & your family make a quick & full recovery Lee, Paul's advice is sound, don't wait if you have difficulties.

 

[Guest]

Lee please do as Paul suggested, early treatment is a must for breathing problems.
I even have a supply of Antibiotics ready in case of a bad chest infection, you can't ignore it.
Good that Belinda is progressing, hope your daughter is ok as well.

 

[Lee Drennen]

Guys. I will take care of my self and Paul I know this is nothing to play around with. My wife is a respiratory therapist at our local Hospital for over 30 years and she’s monitoring and taking very good care of me and our Daughter. When we walk she carries a thing called a pulse ox and monitors my heart rate and oxygen level she also has a thing where I do lung exercises every day so please rest a sure I’m in good hands. Thank you all for caring and taking time to check in on me. Also our Doctor has prescribe strong antibiotics for me and I’ve daughter.

Thanks Jim and Rich. My breathing is better today went for my daily walk and wasn’t short as much. I’m hoping I’m on the down hill side of this. My wife is off quarantine as of today and she’s back to her self. My oldest Daughter seems to be getting better also. Thanks for your support and understanding.

 

[BattleshipBob]

Good to hear Lee

You are getting excellent care!

 

[Lee Drennen]

Yes Bob. My wife and I have been married for 23 years now my dad always said she reminded him of a old strick Army Nurse and sometimes I think he was right. Lol

 

[Mike Mortimore]

I'd like to join if I may, will have to unpack the modelling tools. Fortunately have a few unpacked kits anda few WIP but no where 50% completes so one or two of those could be a contender.

Regards Mike :sleeping::sleeping::sleeping::sleeping::sleeping:

Found this, KFS 1/24 Bedford RL GS, started it a while ago but hospitalization put a stop to it. I'm going to give it my best shot.

 

[scottie3158]

Guys. I’ve been hesitant to post this but I think I’m being unfair to all of you not knowing what’s going on here at the moment. On November 1 my wife was tested Positive for Covid 19. She quarantine in our house but last Friday my Daughter and I started getting sick. Monday we went and got tested and we both were tested Positive. My wife and I walk twice a day around our farm but it’s a chore for me sometimes. I’ve lost my taste and smell. What I’m asking is please don’t think I’m ignoring your builds by not commenting on all of them. I try to check in most days but some days I just don’t feel good at all. My wife goes off quarantine tomorrow and is back to her old self I have good days and bad days. So please bare with me while I get though this. Thanks

Lee

Sorry missed this. Hope you're doing ok?

Andrew

 

[Fernando N]

Sorry to hear about the Covid Lee, hope you and your daughter get well soon.
Seems you're in the best hands with your wife's experience, take care.

 

[Lee Drennen]

I’ve been coughing a lot these past few days so today when my wife went back to work at the hospital she told our Doctor about my cough and still has short of breath sometimes. He ordered a chest X-Ray and blood work. The X-Ray shows I have Pneumonia in both lungs but my blood work showed no blood clots in my lungs. I was hoping to be back at work by now but looks like I’ll be taking it easy for a while. Thanks for your prayers and thoughts. I’ll try to keep up as much as I can.
