Covid Crisis

 Last week on Thursday our son Jordan stopped here after leaving work early saying he didn't feel well and wanted to just crash with us.  He had a sore throat and then stomach flu symptoms.  He doesn't get sick often and when he does it's over quick.  But he was still here and sick on Friday but didn't want to go to a clinic to get checked out.  I felt he had strep.  He went back to his house, and we didn't hear anything from him until his girlfriend called and said he was really sick and had fallen and hurt himself.  We rushed over, had her call the squad and he was rushed to the hospital.  He was so sick and septic from the strep infection and then they also said he had covid.  He was bruised and bleeding from taking a fall (actually, more than one!) and had even broken a rib and punctured a lung!  He couldn't even talk since his throat was so inflamed. Then they were concerned about his kidney function which did eventually shut down.  He's in isolation and has had 2 rounds of dialysis and will get another round tomorrow.  His blood work is still messed up and although the antibiotics are clearing the strep, the covid is the real problem now. So please send prayers if you have a minute.  His small improvements give us hope that he will get through this and back to his new home he just purchased!  You never know when life will hand you a bad day and this has really been a crisis for him.   Thanks for any prayers for Jordan.
