Experiences of my Coronavirus (Covid-19 virus) and the ways I pass time.

"I find myself spending a lot of time looking through blinds and holes in my doors at outsiders."  Peep 
.


1. My Prime Concern: - My elderly wife, age 72, is very susceptible to the virus because of pre-existing conditions (sugar diabetes and a propensity to get respiratory diseases (pneumonia and bronchitis.)  Her doctor says an infection would probably be a death sentence for her.  So, I spend the majority of my time trying to protect her from becoming infected by contact with any infectious situations or materials such as wiping down all packages, including food, that enters our quarantined house. ... This has become my number one concern and at times is very laborious and time-consuming. --- She is also having a lot of "cabin fever" from the quarantine and I try to help her pass time as joyfully as possible.

2. Experiences: - I had an 86 year old aunt and her 86 year old husband (my uncle by marriage) who were well and relatively happy in their elder years when this epidemic began.  ... During the early days of this virus back in late March of this year, my uncle fell down at his house and badly injured himself. ... He could not get up without help from my aunt and would not go to the local hospital because of his fear of becoming infected by the virus as a result of hearing about infected hospitals in major cities on the national news. ... At this time, there was no infections reported in their area.  ... After his wife called an ambulance 3 times that day out of fear of his injuries, he still refused to go to the hospital out of fear of the virus. From the time that he fell, he had sat in his favorite chair and when my aunt finally went to bed out of exhaustion that night he was still in that chair.  ... The next morning when she awakened, she found him dead in that chair. --- Five days later they buried him and my brother left her alone at her house after the burial. That night she fell in her home breaking both arms, a leg, and several ribs. ... She died 4 days later. ... I and all my relatives consider them victims of the epidemic. 

3. How do I pass time? 
a. Attempting to the best of my ability to protect my wife from viral infection.
b. Watching a lot of television, reading a lot of books, and doing a lot of chores around the house.
c. Working on my family genealogy which I earnestly began early in the days of the epidemic. 
d. And, by coming online when time allows and visiting my favorite sites such as this great forum. Smile
