Maven, so sorry for your loss. This is really a terrible disease, and they should be doing so much more to fight it, without the political input.

Very sorry to read about the losses here. I got Covid in December 2021 as well and was fortunate that it didn't harm my kidneys as of yet. Sending positive vibes.

I'm so very sorry for your loss.

Glad to hear that your kidneys were not affected by Covid. I caught Covid in October 2020. I lost 10% of my lung function, which already wasn't the best, and two years later I was diagnosed with stage 3B kidney disease, also from Covid. I struggle a lot with the after effects.

Stay well
