early updates. my mom and dad are going to get IV anti-bodies treatments at the outpatient
good morning angel friends :) i just wanted to post a short update journal this morning. it's continuing tobe up and down, with the virus symptoms. my mom and i both experienced fever flare/lightheadedness this morning. i was here on our couch, and felt woozy, my forehead felt very hot, and i got lightheaded. Holly put the fan on me, and made me a cup of gatorade. i put my head back, closed my eyes, breathing and sipped the gatorade. about 30 minutes later, the lightheadedness eased. both Holly and i woke up feeling slightly better, and less achey,but these fever symptoms flair up the virus. my mom and dad, called the outpatient clinic here in our city. the other day, when my dad went to get tested, he was given papers, about a treatment,called IV anti-bodies fluid treatment. it lasts for about 2 hours. both my mom and dad are eligible for the treatment, due to their age. they're gonna be going in, shortly. the treatment iv, helps people by getting covid-anti-bodies in their system,that helps fight the virus, and they also gonna get some iv treatment to re-hydrate. i'll keep everyone updated, on how they're doing. Holly and i are gonna stick together here in our downtairs apartment, we have our fans on, ac fan,plus drinking lots of water, gatorade, and some ginger ale :) we both may lay down at times today, if needed for rest. we're all hoping and praying to feel better as the days goes on. thank you angel friends, for being here for us, for your prayers, warm well wishes, and comforting us. i'm gonna post an evening journal later with updates i'm slowly eating a piece of toast this morning, and will take a tylenol.we're all keeping strong <3 we hope everyone, has a good day :)

Hi Chris Glad to hear your mom and dad are going for the treatments I'm sure They will begin to feel better once the antibodies begin to work for them, Take it slow hope you feel better as the day goes on Try to eat and drink when you can rest and take care-Stephanie
Hi Chris, I sure hope the IV treatments help your mom and dad to feel better, it’s a shame you and Holly can’t get them also. Continue to get lots of rest and stay hydrated and if you need to lie down do it, there is no rush to do anything. Just keep talking good care of yourselves.
Sending lots of comforting hugs, Jeannie
Chris please keep us updated on your mom and dad how they’re doing I wonder if that really helps I was glad to hear that and hope that we have good news soon as you are feeling better. That’s why I want you to rest take care of yourself and we’ll talk next week and hopefully by then you’re feeling much much better we send you love and hugs and was thinking of you and your family and keeping you all in our thoughts and prayers love you bunches!

I’ve heard good things about that treatment for your mom and dad. Continued prayers for everyone.
Good morning Chris and Holly. So very sorry you are having to go through this. Praying you all will get through this real soon. Glad your Mom and Dad are doing the antibody treatment. I am sure it will make them feel better. Rest and keep hydrated and try to eat to keep your strength up or drink some chicken broth. That was my Mom's cure for everything and it generally helped.
Love you and lots of prayers and hugs
John and Debbie
Hope the treatment helps your mom and dad. All of you remain in our prayers. Lots of love and hugs.
