2020 Quarantine - Day 2

Sam is sick, very sick! High fever and body aches, just plain miserable. Phoned the advice line and was given the typical advice: Tylenol, hydrate, rest, etc. Then there was the added advice, to call back immediately if he starts to have shortness of breath. I asked to have him tested for the coronavirus but was told there are no tests, not even for those in the hospital! I'm not too worried, as I know the odds are in his favor that this is just a bad cold or flu. I am concerned however with how lethargic he is. Dane and I take turns giving him back massages to help ease his muscle aches. Needless to say, we check on him often throughout the night to see how he's breathing. A scary time to be sick!
