My DH just been taken into hospital with an irregular heartbeat, low oxygen and breathlessness worse than normal due to COPD. He has been unwell since xmas eve and we have tried to cope at home with calls to 111 and gp ringing us back with prescription for antibiotics and steriods as he is prone to chest infections. But this morning we had to admitt defeat. Hoping they will discharge later today as dont really want him staying in there, also that they will sort out what ever the issue is. sad

Oh travelsafar I’m so very sorry to hear that. thanks

Sadly my DH lost the fight against covid and passed away peacefully and in no distress. I couldnt be with him even though in the same hospital but I have been assured that the team looking after him did so with the utmost care and compassion. Thank you for all the messages that have been posted. I am sure you know I will need time now to come to terms with my loss.

Sending wishes for a speedy recovery to all those who have been or are currently suffering from the virus. flowers

An extremely fit young family member of mine, only in his early 30s, is now experiencing long Covid and it is incredibly debilitating.
