Thank you for the prayers! I am so sorry you have had to suffer through this also!!! Funny thing is I have not been coughing really unless I over exert and get out of oxygen. It’s just been blowing out bloody blobs. Grosses stuff I have ever seen.
How exactly did you get an antibiotic?!?!?!?
A picture for some of us older Vol women fans to enjoy, since the male crowd like to throw out their pictures. Gotta do my part for the superior sex

It’s great to see you back!Hey, y’all! I’m sorry if you were worried about me with me not being on! @VOLSONLY stopped by the library today while I was trying to get a million books out of the book drop on my first day back at work. (He looked familiar so I kept going through all the kids I taught because they’re always coming around expecting me to know how they look grown up because they think I know everything. Then he mentioned my dad so I am thinking whose kid is this. Then he said Volnation, and the light came on because I really don’t know everything. I wanted to run and give him a hug, but I really didn’t have the energy.) He said y’all had been worried. I’m sorry! I have just had so much besides me going on. My dad also in the hospital. He will be 86 next week and has only went to the doctor in the last few years for high blood pressure and few times for anxiety. He is in shock that he is so weak still. My husband missed 3 weeks work with covid, worked a week and then missed last week with a stomach virus he picked up. Well, plus the sinus infection we had between the other virus (flu?) we had at the end of December. Then there’s our son and DIL divorcing every other week. She likes to send him to us. Anyway, I think I slept two weeks with the covid except when blowing my nose from the sinus infection. When we could get up I wanted to get to the doctor for an antibiotic. He had one here that he had not taken once when the doctor prescribed it. But he got over his infection. Called my doctor and 7 to 10 days! So we went to an urgent care in Jasper. Before I could get my sob story out, she put the oxygen thing on my finger and ran out of the room. The doctor came in and said loudly, “We’re calling an ambulance! I don’t have the equipment here for this!” Granted my brain was not working well, but I asked if my husband could not just drive me right down the road to the ER? She got all hysterical and said we would have to sign all kinds of papers for her to let me leave there. I was like okay. So she went out and scared my husband to death. So ambulance took me to Parkridge in Jasper so I could wait 8 hours to be transported to Chattanooga. Double pneumonia, and I had no idea because I have had trouble breathing since the blood clots in my lungs. The first day I talked to the doctor I told him I went in for a sinus infection. He said it doesn’t matter if your in China or Africa or wherever it is always a sinus infection. When being released, I brought up the sinus infection. He said that he wished he had known! LOL. I finally got an antibiotic!
I just have not been back on because I am not my normal sweet self. The doctor told me it could take months to get back to normal. So months to get back to my normal chronic fatigue self. Plus trying to deal with everything else. Frustrated with GA winning as bad as I hate AL. And with all the NIL and the player carousel. Didn’t want to read all the bad stuff right now. Anyone got some good news for me? Football or personal?
And, Volsonly, please come back when I am more myself! Usually people say I always smile and make them feel welcome wherever or whenever!
Glad you’re doing better also! Y’all have cheered me up!.....But nobody has given me any good news!Hospital doctors sent me home with only prednisone. Personal doc told me not to take the prednisone and prescribed a 10 day supply of a strong antibiotic.
My oxygen levels still fluctuate. They stay above 90 unless I do too much…but come back above 90 fairly quick when I simply breathe thru my nose deeply. And I know what you mean about the bloody blobs. Downfall of the oxygen.
Glad you are doing better. And yes, this is going to take a lot of time to completely get rid of.
Welcome back to VN!
Your welcome, news came through a church group text. I stayed in contact with your Aunt, she kept me updatedI’m sorry if I missed anyone’s post! I thank you for the prayers and caring. I didn’t realize Volsonly knew I was in the hospital. Glad I live in a small town! Thank you for updating them for me, Volsonly!
Sam looks better.Got to meet her when I was in college. She was a friend of my sister. Worked with charity fundraisers together. Kayhy Ireland also a friend of my sister. Unfortunately, never got to meet her.
Bo Derek was tiny…very nice person.

People have responsibility. Howard took an action. Consequences have been dealt.
IMO, he's only a role model for his own kids.
Everyone has expectations of how they are supposed to act, especially in professional settings. When they fail to meet those expectations, consequences ensue. That does not make them role models.
Truthfully put, beyond parenting, I don't believe in role models.
