Need Prayers for DH

5 years ago

Two weeks ago, DH and I both tested positive for COVID 19. Since I have COPD and asthma I figured it would be worse for me, but it turned out not to be. DH does have health issues (Type 2 diabetes, heart attack, 2 major cardiac ablations, pacemaker) and about 4 days ago began to have problems with his chest "feeling tight". This would usually be a couple of hours or so after he got up - he just would "run out of gas". There is an old saying that you can drag a horse to water but you can't make him drink...this applies here. Well today he felt bad enough he wanted to go see his doctor. Xrays showed COVID pneumonia. Left doctor's office and took him directly to the ER at the hospital where I use to work in ICU. His O2 sats were way low. This is the first time I have not been able to be with him when he has been hospitalized. I'm really scared. Please say prayers and send good thoughts for him.
