Up Here in Bathysphere (or wherever it is)
Yeah, it's not over yet. The doctor threw up his hands and said that he has bounced back so many times already, he could go either way at this point.
I'd still like to know how he got COVID-19 in a skilled nursing facility. It isn't like he's been carousing the nightclubs without a mask. I take way more risks than he does and I've never seen a symptom. But that will remain a mystery. The entire staff is tested, and nobody was positive, before or after he got it. Heck, it might have come from one of my sisters visiting. I dunno.
But as good as the care they're giving him, ol' Wifehorn could do better all by herself. Okay, I help too also. Remember, we took care of both her parents through their deaths, and we know what to do. But there's no chance of moving him down here now, he's just too weak for traveling. He's getting the best care from the SNF, but it's frustrating because we think we could do better, but we can't go live in a hotel in Bathysphere, Maryland for weeks on end.
So all I can do is read my sister's texts on how he's doing. If he improves enough to talk on the phone, she'll call us. Beyond that, I'm powerless to influence the course of events.

The more I learn about this planet, the more improbable it all seems.

How totally frustrating this must be for you. I’m so sorry.
