Flue A journey !! πŸ₯ΉπŸ₯ΉπŸ€’πŸ€’πŸ€’πŸ€’2025

 



So February 5 2025 was the longest day. In my life this year. !

so this happened today I’ve been sick for the last couple days so aunt Vickie took me in to get all the labs done and Covid test which came back. I don’t have Covid. Praise Jesus, but I have type A flu😷😷😷😷😷πŸ₯ΉπŸ₯ΉπŸ’›πŸ₯ΉπŸ˜ͺ they are giving me Tamiflu and iv antibiotics  to start off and you’re keeping me in the hospital for a few days. Still waiting for a room. They are worried that my blood pressure is dropping so please pray that another team with doctors are going to come in and give me something for that. My blood pressure dropping the last few days. I have chills and coughing  a lot dry cough and allow deep cough.  πŸ˜·  and fever πŸ€’.   Rob will be home the next three days cleaning  on the house.  

The providers told me since my complications history they wanted  keep me in for a few days. I’m very fragile when it comes to these deadly viruses 🦠 especially for those like me who have underline. Heart disease 🦠.  It really takes me out  zaps me for a very long time !!”   

I was not happy to stay but I knew I had to get stronger to get rid of this horrible Flu A.  This was so nasty the cough Ana’s fever keeps me up all night “ my sweet husband came brought me a quilt and my bear 🐻 for comfort then he got sick before I did well we’re not sure how but we both were sick. He was at home sleeping and getting over it !   I needed up 3 days in the hospital 
My blood pressure dropped. Below my normal low “ 
And my oxygen was turned up too leader 5!   Then the third day  I was able to be at my basic line with oxygen and my numbers came back up!    Thank you Jesus. My family and church family. Prayed over me “  I’m so thankful for our prayer worriors family !”  
🫢😷‼️






My sweet hubby made this quilt last year for me !   
He brought it in for me to use in the hospital!  He does that for me everytime I have to be addmited “. 😘😍



Rob works nights & he came in after work. And brought me my special things and a dinner 🍲 to share !!   
❤️❤️❤️♥️ 






So its been 3 weeks since this journey 

I was so scared so much coughing lack of sleep πŸ’€  but so happy  that I was able to be home with my husband 

Rob missed a week becusze he wanted to be sure. I was strong enough to take care of myself  it scared me how weak I was when I got home ! 🏠 


Slowly but surly I was building my strength back I find myself hand sewing 🧡 on my binding quilts and slowly cooking again. !   Our church family brought us meals the first week home 🏑 that helped so much. !  When I was awake at night so was Rob helping me get comfortable to sleep πŸ’€ 

He got me a humidifier  I was propping my pillows up for sleeping.  Taking Robitussin  I sure have to be careful of over counter meds with my heart medications” 

I would email my provider to double check ! 

It’s been  3 week still coughing my provider says.   My cough will stay the longer because of my health it’s sure hurting my ribs :( very sore  

We had a follow up appointment! Last week and my lungs 🫁 sounded great so no pneumonia !!!  Praise Jesus. I didn’t want to go back in the hospital!”  








We are celabrate that my lungs 🫁 are good !!😊 
God is faithful  even when we’re so sick 🀒 I know I feel his presence carrying me through every disease I catch Covid bronchitis pneumonia & now flue A. 
I even had all my shots and vaccines  but I know that if I didn’t have them I wouldn’t survive “.  

Thank you Jesus  for using medical field and medicine and wonderful providers for your healing ❤️‍🩹!!!!!
