Negative

Mum got her results back today and she is negative for covid 19 which is good news.  The results were back quickly and within 24 hours.  As she suspected it is probably just a simple cold, and she will be able to return back to work 24 hours after she feels better.

She got lots of texts from friends and made a couple of phone calls today, which is always nice to laugh with friends when they can't get together.  She made herself a tasty dinner of a pork chop with potatoes and salad, and mixed herself a vodka and fruit juice.  She watched JoJo Rabbit and thinks she will sleep much better tonight, as long as her coughing does not wake her up too much.

Thank you for all the well wishes - mum was very grateful for your kindness.

  1. I am very relieved for your mum, Poppy. Even though she suspected it was a seasonal cold, in these times it is always a huge worry that it may not be. She and all the health workers have more than enough to cope with without extra worry. I am very glad the result came back quickly.

    their services..amazing..! But! The people dying is still going
    up..even the odd healthy person catching it is dying..Terrible!
    God! It's awful..and talking of God..well..l still pray, in my
    own way, don't have to go to church on my knees..if l have summat
    to say to him upstairs..l say it..!

  3. Who would think that a person would be grateful for a cold! I am sure
    mum is, Poppy. I just know you giving her lots of cuddles will make the
    cold go away soon. I love the purple flower!

  9. That is great news, Poppy. Did you and Mum like JoJo Rabbit? We just saw it, and thought it was a good movie.
