    I sat with a very interesting couple tonight at my cousin's rehearsal dinner.  They are both young and healthy nurses in the hospital down here in Texas.  What they told me was wild.  Heart breaking.  Day to day changes.  Patients going from perfectly stable to nearly coding or going into respiratory failure in 20 mins time.  That went on for 2-3 hard months.  Treatments that were working last week quit working the next week.  Everything about the virus and how different people were reacting was totally different.  They said the media is total BS to reality on a covid floor.  They were an open book.  She was working 14 days on 2 days off, 12-15 hour shifts.  His load wasn't as crazy but close.  They were selected to work the covid floor because they were young and healthy.  

    Now they said when they do get a covid patient the severity is way less. 

    They did wind up hospitalizing some of their own.  She never got it but he did.  

    We could have kept talked but they started taking pictures and everyone started leaving.  

    They said the hardest part was not allowing family in and then they started doing 15 min, 1 family member visit when they knew the writing was on the wall.  I didn't ask how many died there but they talked about doing cpr and intubating multiple patients a day for weeks at the peak.  

    Wow, thanks for sharing!

    Mrs. mile delivered food to the homeless women's shelter in Denver today.... as she has been doing for years. And then received a text that the person she handed the food off to.... was tested positive for Covid after Mrs. mile left the shelter.

    Praying your wife doesn’t get the virus mile!

    Sounds like Indiana will open things back up sooner rather than later in stages. Haven't read the details yet but Simon Malls are opening all dozen or so of their properties this Saturday.

    Maybe but Gov Holcomb will be addressing the May 1st deadline that day. With Cass county exploding, if they do open up after Friday, it will probably be a county by county decision.
