Replacing the much lamented 'On My Mind' profile option, this thread is for musings, jottings, whimsies, preoccupations and the rest of the thesaurus for anyone to jot down anything they please.
I can't remember what the maximum character count was before, can anyone else? But anyway it wasn't very many so let's keep to that.
If I do nothing important and just sit tight, 🌸
Spring will still be here soon. 🌺
Because when I deleted my post, it said, written in red, that I cannot leave this empty.
Knot!
I am at the end of my knot.

I think the saying is at the end of the rope, tie a knot in it and hang on.
Sounds like what you are doing Send. I hope things settle down long enough to tie the knot.
I am believing with you that she is already healed.

True!
Even something called Covid Psychosis.
I went to those links, but did not find the article.
There have been stories of people here in B.C. who have long haul covid. There is one woman in particular they have been profiling on the news. A lovely woman. Only in her late thirties. She can't even walk more than a few steps without her heart racing. Says she even has to sit down to brush her teeth. Walks with a cane now. They showed her on the news just the other day. She's aged five years since the last time they showed her which was just before Christmas. She was warning people who are slacking off with their social distancing etc. to be careful. No one wants to end up like her.
I think most people are okay even after they get covid but there are always those stories. Be forewarned.

The ultimate brain damage: 😡 is death.
["Brain damage worse in deadly COVID cases
In this regard, the study authors found that markers of brain damage were worse in patients who did not survive their coronavirus infection. The markers in patients who died of COVID were 124 percent higher than those who eventually left the hospital."]
I am not doubting the study, just the author of the article to convey the facts accurately throughout.
I am going to see the actual study.
I am interested because I see signs of mental decline in someone we know about.
I will look for the original study.
Just stopping by to say goodnight, and I hope you are feeling better. 🦙️
Covid's impact on the brain it seems cannot be all or nothing. I wonder, too, about the grading and steps of damage in those that recover. Does it somehow affect just some brains and these are people that most often die. Does it affect an area of the brain that is responsible for recovery from sickness and disease? So much is not known about Covid and it will be years.
Is this the right effect vs affect? This one just always gets me, it seems.
