Last week Tuesday, my mom rode in a car with someone to a community event. The person was sick. My mom was not very excited to be exposed to illness. The following day, the woman contacted my mom. The woman tested positive for Flu B. The woman was very sick.
On Friday evening, my mom did not feel well. She abruptly became quite sick. I spent Saturday wearing gloves around the house and washing my gloves frequently to hopefully not get sick.
Yesterday, I noticed my dad seemed to have a cough. He sometimes has issues with allergies. So, I gave him to benefit of the doubt that his extra coughs were due to allergies. Last night, we went to the grocery store to buy food for Thanksgiving. My dad was definitely not feeling well. I rolled down my window for part of the drive to hopefully mitigate my exposure to his sickness. When we got home from the store, my dad laid down on the couch and started to cough his head off.
Today, my dad is very unwell. I have quarantined myself to my room. When my dad had fallen asleep this morning in the living room (he refuses to go to bed because he does not want to be exposed to my mom's sickness), I quickly raided the kitchen. I normally do not drink bottled water, but I do not want to go out to the kitchen to get more water to drink from the faucet when my glass runs out. So, I took five bottles of water, a bag of pears, and a jar of soup from the fridge. I hope this is enough to last me through the day.
I seem to be the last man standing. I hope I can avoid illness. This sickness is a very nasty bug. In the meantime, I suppose I should film YouTube. I am feeling well today. I should take advantage of a good health day.
