Last week, Covid-19 struck rather too close to home for comfort for my family too. My wifes Auty who already had underlying health issues and was currently in a nursing home, was diagnosed with Covid-19. This morning we received the dreaded call and it's with great sadness that we've been informed that her Aunt has passed away this morning. A gentle reminder for all our members to stay at home over the Easter Holidays and stay safe. We can beat this thing if we all do the correct thing and keep our distance from others outside of the home. Have a good weekend all and stay safe. Gene. So sorry to hear of this loss in your family Gene. Losing an Aunty is always tragic but this virus seems like such an injustice, people leaving us before their time.
The numbers read on the news around the world each night are tragic. The losses in so many families.
A good friend of mine last weekend had to visit her father through the window of his nursing home for his 90th birthday. Only one person is allowed to visit because the risk is so high, (her Mum) was allowed in to visit.
I hope your family have support and comfort in this hard time.

That’s very sad news! Gene! sorry to hear this! this virus is getting so close to home and affecting so many people. Im sick to the back teeth of hearing about people Who are not taking it seriously!! It’s beginning to really annoy me! Ive already unfriended someone on Facebook over a stupid comment he put on FB saying ‘what’s wrong with people it’s just a cold’ and this comment was put on when the status of the virus was already established!! today I’ve just reported a scum bag in eBay for selling a small bottle of carex hand soap for £15 despite the bad reviews and they have received about their conduct! he carry’s on!! was painful to read one review of a disabled persons review feeling isolated and stuck in and stressed that they had to pay this ‘bar steward’ £15 for a bottle. He should be struck off eBay n prosecuted!

My best friend is an absolute wonder woman. She's amazing; she's going through so much but still manages to to keep her two little kids and husband, house and full time job all in check. She lives 25 miles away from me where I grew up and so we message every day but I don't see her half as much as I'd like and obviously not for months now with the current madness. Well she'd been telling me her little boy was poorly the last few nights and today I hadn't heard from her at all - literally got a message 10 minutes ago, turns out that not only has he got covid19, but seemingly so has she. She hadn't mentioned that she, too, was feeling awful. She's spent most of today at the hospital having tests after coughing up lots of blood yesterday night and she's home again now but they're pretty sure that's what they're both going through. I feel so helpless because I literally can't do anything to help. Ordinarily if she were poorly, I would just hop in the car and help however possible but obviously, for multiple reasons, I can't do it.

Oh no! I'm very sorry to hear this Bolly. As you say, we are all helpless in this situation. There is nothing you can do except stay away for their sakes and yours. I wish her and the young one a swift and full recovery.

I wish her and the young one a swift and full recovery. Thanks Guv. They've discharged her so fingers crossed she's OK. She's had pneumonia previously so I think that's what's caused that specific symptom. Just not the news I was expecting this evening!
