My almost 13 year old granddaughter is into her third week of suffering with covid symptoms. She was ill the week before half term and tested positive, she was unwell all of half term week and is still at home today when she should have gone back to school.
Her school have been very understanding and have said that there are a lot of children who are taking a long time to get back to normal. She is so very tired all the time, not much appetite and as white as a sheet. I haven't seen her, this is from my daughter.
Do any of you have grandchildren who have suffered with covid and not bounced back quickly ?
We all hate to see her like this and she is missing so much school and her beloved dancing.
School have said they will provide work for her to do at home when she feels up to it.
I think the hardest thing is that she was due to have her covid jab about four weeks ago at school, but the nurse doing the vaccinations decided at 3'oclock that she wouldn't do anymore and my granddaughter and about 20 others missed out. They didn't offer another date.
We do wonder if she had had the jab if she would have been so poorly. She is also asthmatic.
I'm just putting this out there to see if this resonates with anyone else.
Thank you for reading.
