Bad News. · 4:32pm Jan 7th, 2021
Right after I finished my last blog post, just learned that one of my cousins tested positive for COVID-19. She got it from the Krogers' in Chicago where she works, and even though she was clearly sick, she was apparently told to come in and work anyway. A bad idea by itself, but it gets worse.
How much worse, you ask?
This news led my cousin's parents, my Aunt Susan and Uncle Scott, to visit her. That's also bad, but I'm not done
Then my aunt and uncle then visited my mom's mom, my grandmother after that. A completely asinine move, because my grandmother is 93. She tests positive and actually gets sick, it's a done deal for her, as much as I hate to say it.
I'm worried, I will admit. Because until now, no one I know in my family has or had tested positive.
And I also just learned my aunt considered NOT TELLING MY MOM ABOUT THIS.
So, I guess it had to happen sometime. Send your kind words.
Thanks.
(Also, I am holding updates for now. I need to process this.)
Just do what needs to be done.
The stories can wait.
Family cannot.

Righto.
My mother has an autoimmune disease which places her in a high risk category.
We have been staying up to date with all the research.
Donald Trump's magic mixture of melatonin, zinc, vitamin C and D? Yeah, we had already been doing that for months. Not to mention Iodine protocols which was already part of her regimin.
PubMed and Google Scholar are your two friends. Peer-reviewed documents. Forget normal Google, it's rubbish for anything medical.
Honestly, it's a case of not if it hits but when. My mother with an autoimmune disease... Your grandmother at age 93... High risk categories, right? Do your own research, get prepared, and face the storm when it comes.

Yeah, I understand. A lot of my mom's family live in Ohio and we live in Indiana, meaning differing opinions on how to take care of my grandmother. And my Aunt that is the parent of my COVID-positive cousin is rather stubborn from what I've heard.
Family and health are first. Don't worry, we can wait, mate.

Anytime, just hope they're all okay.
Ok. The manager of that Kroger is an idiot. I hope your family gets better.

Thanks a bunch.
Seriously kroger, one of your employee is sick and they still need your cousin to work anyway. Wheres the common sense. I hope your family can recover from this

Yeah, me too. My mom's still pissed for good reason.
As far as I'm concerned, Krogers' gonna be responsible for a bunch of future cases of Covid and will definitely get people killed. Should be sued into oblivion for that level of negligence and disregard for safety.
Shite, I am sorry to hear this. I will pray to my Goddess to watch over those family of yours who are sick!
