It was initially ruled out, but his daughter just confirmed it was due to Coronavirus. And I'm not afraid because of me, but because I got my mom with Hypertension and my father with Diabetes both living with me at the moment.

I guess it's time to hoard food and not leave the house AT ALL for a while.

No pre existing conditions, but he was 70 years old. Decent fella too. I guess he was asymptomatic for a while, because they only took him to the clinic last friday with some chest pains, "nothing major" as I recall, and lasted a whole 5 days.

Keep in mind, some will say they're fine until it gets too hard to hide. I wouldn't do that with something contagious, but I've definitely done it for other stuff. A lot of people downplay how they feel. Going completely off what someone said themselves is iffy. Unless you personally know them.

We should be pass the point where it feels "all of a sudden" tho. People need to hurry up and learn faster from other's misfortune.

Yeah that's something I'll never understand. Why do certain people gain from rubbing it off claiming they feel fine?

Though I gotta give him the benefit of the doubt based on how he was, like I said, he was a decent fella, doesn't strike me as someone who would hide the thing, considering his daughter and granddaughter of only 5 years old live in the same house.

I really think he only started feeling bad on said friday. Which is mindblowing to me. Something that can kill you in only 5 days is terrifying. That now makes a total of 12 people I personally knew that have died to the virus.

I know what you mean. I really just meant like "yeahhhh it's here in my city but I don't know anyone directly who has it yet" Because before you know it BOOM you started hearing about it. My dad, my gf's parents, my friends parents alllll vulnerable and it's probabbly coming if this fucking country can't get over itself.

If you mean sickness in general, it's because they don't want to appear weak. It can also be because you don't want pity, which pity is also a gateway to becoming the type of weak referencing.

There's also people not liking the attention. You want to appear fine so no one shines a spotlight on you and your problems.

Yeah. It will always be a little jarring. I have no real idea how Id handle it. I just know that Im really gonna try to prevent it. As long as I follow that, I can give myself permission to not stress it for now.
