Phantom Ship

Isaac tested positive for Covid on Wednesday, the day after his birthday, which is obviously a massive concern. He's been pretty unwell since then- temperature, cough, lack of appetite, lethargy- and was very out of sorts yesterday. We put him on a course of emergency antibiotics which were prescribed to us months ago in case this happened and now just have to watch and wait. If he goes downhill, we'll have to take him to hospital. We've have both been testing since Wednesday. I've done four lateral flow tests since Wednesday, all negative, and went for a PCR yesterday. The chances of us not catching Covid while living with Isaac would seem pretty slim. He requires constant care and isn't very careful with his coughing. It leaves us feeling very anxious about things. Fingers crossed and all that. 

I had this song lined up for today before writing this post and it isn't really at all relevant to the above but I'll go ahead with it anyway- it's a laid back, sunset groove remix of Tempelhof and Gigi Masin by Coyote, Nottingham remixing Italy back in 2016, Balearic sounds for late November.

  8. Thanks everyone. Between writing this post and it going live things have changed significantly.

    Isaac was taken to hospital last night by ambulance, concerns about hos oxygen levels and breathing. he was increasingly unwell yesterday. We were up all night in A&E with him. He's now been admitted to a Covid ward and is on IV antibiotics, steroids and oxygen. When I came home at 5.30 am I got a text from Track and Trace to say the PCR test I took yesterday is positive so now I'm isolating while Isaac and Lou are in hospital. Which is a fucking nightmare to put it mildly. Thanks for all your best wishes.

  11. Oh jesus, so sorry. My lad tested positive the week before last, he's got some underlying health conditions, but after a few poorly days he seems good again. No one else tested positive, though the wife was quite poorly. It's heart-breaking, I know, because we shouldn't be in this position.

  19. I'm so sorry to drop this on here tonight. Isaac has been very poorly and the Covid got into his lungs and refused to respond to treatment. He died this afternoon. Me, Lou and his sister Eliza were with him when he slipped away. We're heartbroken. Thank you all for your best wishes. Live to you all.

  32. Adam,

    just read the devastating news on TVV. I know words cannot help you at all right now, still my thoughts are with you and your family. Obviously I've never met Isaac, but every post about him in the last ten or twelve years made me know him better and better ... at least a little bit, somehow.

    Although I can't even halfway imagine how you must feel today, be strong. If you ever feel you need to talk, let me know.

    Love, your pal,

    Dirk
