Self isolating, coronavirus or not, is a way of life for me.
I have several autoimmune diseases and for many years have been living with the symptoms.
This all started at age 15 and I am now 74.
It started with Valley Fever, Arthritis, Fibromyalgia, Hyperthyroidism and I just became a
Diabetic with Lupus on the horizon. Oh Yea Me !
Each of these have all the symptoms are what you are being told to watch out for. Valley fever
and Fibromyalgia are the worst.
My Gud Dug Watson had Valley Fever and the Vets thought he was going to die. He did get
better but was never the same. They have Meds for dogs but not for humans.
I never go out now where large groups of people are, Theater, Movies, Museums, Baseball,
Christmas crowds or Shopping centers. Travel is really fun !
I am very housebound, now more than ever.
If do go out when I come home I scrub my hands and clean my phone.
Shoes off and slippers on. I wash all my fruit and veggies soap and water especially
if grown in Mexico.
I have been doing this for so many years it is normal.
I have to be very careful not to get sick.
I am so lucky because of where I live. I have a great piece of land and a tiny but cute
back yard. Lots of trees with birds and animals all around. I get to walk outside my
home. Where I live is not very crowded so I can walk outside.
.
My life is good and I am happy.
Plus I live with Gud Dugs and Kitties !
...
Everyone stay safe.
