My oldest boy has covid and right now he ain't doing so good. A nurse came to his house, and gave him a couple of IVs today.

He's insulin dependent diabetic, far from being overweight, and really doesn't have any other health issues.

Prayers if you got'em.

No it was his son that took the jab. He won't take it. Nurse gave him some kinda cocktail iv, and said so far his lungs are clear.

Praying for your son Dee. That is good that his lungs are clear.

If anyone has asthma meds they would help keep his lungs open. '

Dee, my wife, mother in law and I had covid, one of the things we did was get the Regeneron monoclonal antibody infusion along with inhaled budesonide. My wife and her mother are severely asthmatic and both of those treatments saved them from being hospitalized or worse.

If he resides in Texas the Texas Department of Emergency Management has set up quite a few Regeneron infusion centers across the state and the treatment doesn't cost anything.

Prayers for your son for a quick recovery.

He lives just outside of Abilene. I'll tell him about the fusion, he had some kind of iv cocktail by a nurse practitioner, and I I could have been mistaken, but I think he was offered what your talkin about, and turned it down. I'll check.

Dee I'm very sad that is happening to you and your family. Would that town just outside Abilene happen to be
Clyde. My grandmother lived there.

Dee, it's available in Odessa where we got it and the nurses there told us there was an infusion center in Abilene as well. The phone number for the infusion center in Odessa is 432-640-2022 and they can probably give you the phone number for the one in Abilene.

We live in Brady and had not heard of the one in Abilene and drove to Odessa for the treatment. Fingers crossed he will get the treatment, it sure helped us.

From a personal perspective I never get sick, my Doc years ago told me I had a million dollar immune system but Covid got my attention and I haven't been that sick in decades.

Prayers for his quick recovery and healing.

I second the monoclonal antibodies, my wife got that on Tuesday and it turned her around in a day. If anyone gets COVID call doc asap and demand it. I was told I wouldn't qualify only to find out most Docs don't want to go through the paperwork involved. If they would push this treatment as much as they do the vaxxes this thing would be under control. Need to get it as soon as possible after diagnosis for it to work as designed.

No, his closest neighbor is about a mile.

How is your son doing as of today Dee?

I think if they would let doctors prescribe ivermectin, covid would be under control from a point of people getting very sick. I guess there just isn't much money in that compared to vaccines, and remdesivir.

Dee · « **Reply #19 on:** December 10, 2021, 02:34:35 AM »

Calling ambulance, he's going to the hospital.
Hes gettin the monoclonal infusion to see it they can turn it around.
He ain't doing to good.

Dee · « **Reply #20 on:** December 10, 2021, 05:13:34 AM »

Son has taken a bad turn. My daughter has called numerous doctors shes acquainted with.
She's on her way to Abilene now, and will bring him back to Ft Worth if necessary to get him turned around on this.

Prayers needed.

If anybody can get things moving my daughter can. She is fearless when it comes to family, and shes a nurse that has had covid-19, along with her husband, stepson, daughter, and grand daughter.

My daughter and his stepdaughter are max attention, and double teaming his covid.
His stepdaughter is monitoring his diabetes, and making sure he eats.
Both have had covid-19, and we're all hoping they have natural immunity.

Located the clinic, and he got the infusion, an inhaler, and ivermectin yesterday morning.
He's weak today, but feeling better.

It's amazing how fast you can pop back after the antibody treatment. Glad he's doing better!
