I am only writing this post to let you all know that our son who works for the ambulance service in the UK has been taken into hospital having contracted vivid. It seems that he is in a bad way of breathing. It just shows how vulnerable our emergency services are. PLEASE be safe and sensible
Covid: I am only writing this post to let you all... - LUPUS UK
Covid
❤️ sending best wishes and hope he has a speedy recovery
I'm so sorry - my daughter is a nurse sent to work on Covid ICU and the other is a paramedic working in A&E. I'm you have lain awake at nights as I have dreading this result. I do hope he's OK. And it is high time that every dose of vaccine available was given to the medical staff first. I've been shielding all year - another couple of months won't hurt me.
My daughter who is a nurse caught covid in oct then passed it onto my grandchildren and son in law.they have all recovered .I hope and pray you are as lucky as me and your son also makes a full recovery.God bless xxxx
Why don't you do a meet via gmail? Then at least you will see them as well.
That’s awful 😞 I’m so sorry your son has got covid - my niece is in the last year of her training to be a nurse and she has caught covid twice as she was put on the Covid wards, luckily she is young and fit. I do hope your son will soon be out of hospital xx
It is so sad that they are so vulnerable . I hope your niece stays well
Sending all my love, I had to give my job in a primary school up because of virus and I kept having infections fortunately I retire in January
Enjoy your retirement. And please stay safe
HiSorry to hear about your son and I hope he recovers soon. My daughter is a nurse and she has been redeployed to help with covid and it is a worry. I have to stay away from her and my grandsons because of the risks
That is a sad state of affairs. I am sorry to hear that. Hopefully she will be okay. Take care
Sorry to hear this , best wishes to you all and I hope 🤞 he makes a speedy recovery. 🙏🤞
Your family is in my thoughts.
Thank you very much
Thinking of your son and so hoping for him to do well. It sounds like they reacted fast, which is now key to getting best results with all the new medications.
Do you know what they have him on?
Please keep us informed
Xk
I’m so sorry just-typing. I hope he recovers quickly 💐
I am so very sorry to hear this. I hope and pray that your son gets prompt and effective treatment to enable him to recover. You must be so worried bless you. Xx
Thank you very much to you and all the replies we have received. We are waiting for more news today. There is a possibility that they may let him home and keep an eye on him via their virtual hospital. They don't feel that he needs ventilation at this time. I think it is amazing that things like zoom are now available.
Best wishes I hope your son has a full recovery 🙏 X
Praying he will make a speedy recovery
My thoughts are with you and your son.Hope everything works out well for you all.
Thank you very much. He was due home today and would have been monitored by the virtual hospital monitor, but they have decided to keep him there and moved him to ICU. He has an oxygen mask on him. Our daughter in law is keeping us up to date.
What a stressful time you and your family are having. I hope there is more positive news for you very soon. Take care sue x
Thank you Susie39
Praying that he makes a speedy recovery x
So sorry to hear this. Keeping you and your family in my thoughts. Hope he makes swift recovery. I’m sure it’s the last thing you need to bring in the New Year. Sending hugs your way. ❤️xx
Thank you Jmiller
SO sorry to hear this JT. It is so unfair when somebody like your son helping others is struck down by Covid himself. I hope and pray his breathing improves very soon and that he makes a speedy and full recovery. 🙏🏻 I also pray that people act responsibly at New Year to keep safe others of those we all depend on when we are ill ourselves. My thoughts and prayers are with your family. 🙏🏻 🤗😘x
Thank you Spotty-ewe: we have not long ago received pics of him with his face covered by an oxygen breathing mask and a Canulla in his wrist. Very upsetting, but we needed to see it.
So hard, I know. Must be hard to see those pictures. Maybe try to focus on how the oxygen is helping him to breath comfortably. They may have him on medications that could kick in soon.
Thinking of you and family.

Thank you very much KayHimm. Isn't it sad that people just won't follow guidance that could possibly have eradicated the pandemic now.
Sorry to about your son. Hope he's recovering from this awful virus. The emergency services do such a marvellous job, while putting their own lives at risk. We all have to do the right things to save lives and to protect people like your son. Be strong, stay safe.
Thank you Dustb. The support from everyone on these sites has been nothing but marvellous.
I am happy to say that although he is not out of the woods yet, there is progress. They take his breathing equipment off him at meal times, for an hour. He is still not there yet. However, he has been allowed to go to the bathroom alone, and he is texting us. Thank you to both yourself and the many well wishers for you support. I will put a notice on when he finally gets to go home. Love you all.xx
