how are you dorens?
8:26 pm
Dorens
Pretty good, owl. Two weeks in Scotland, Covid, which activated my COPD, but after two days home I'm up in Martha's Vineyard now. Beautiful place to struggle with breathing. How about you?
8:28 pm
72 Temple Owl
doing okay, but had some difficulty while traveling. dragging feet about seeing dcotor.
8:28 pm
72 Temple Owl
blamed some thinngs on heat in greece but some continues at home.
8:29 pm
Dorens
stop dragging your feet, please!
8:29 pm
72 Temple Owl
did not know about copd
8:31 pm
Dorens
I don't bother talking about it. I have a pretty mild case- only have exacerbations after colds, or Upper Respiratory Infections. Sometimes not too bad, sometimes worse, but never needed hospitalization or oxygen or anything like that.
8:31 pm
72 Temple Owl
curious, id you vaccinate before the trup?
8:31 pm
72 Temple Owl
my dr recommended so i did.
8:32 pm
Dorens
I did, exactly two weeks before we left-supposed to be the ideal spot. But this newer strain doesn
8:33 pm
Dorens
doesn't seem to be afraid of it. Then again we only were sick for two days at most so perhaps the vax did help
8:33 pm
72 Temple Owl
well it's to the point that, like other cornoaviruses, it's become a chronic threat. like common cold.
8:33 pm
72 Temple Owl
which is also a coronavirus.
8:34 pm
Dorens
yes, true. But Covid-19 can have more dire effects in some, particularly the unvaccinated
8:34 pm
72 Temple Owl
yes.
8:34 pm
72 Temple Owl
hey iwe had terrible time with british air on the glifht home
8:35 pm
72 Temple Owl
but greece was very interesting
8:36 pm
Dorens
I really enjoyed Greece . more the islands than the mainland though
8:36 pm
Dorens
I mean, I was ON the islands more than the mainland
8:36 pm
72 Temple Owl
we only did santorini and hydra
8:37 pm
72 Temple Owl
we moved a lot, very fast paced trip
8:38 pm
Dorens
You enjoyed, right?
8:39 pm
72 Temple Owl
yes. a bit overwhelming
8:40 pm
Dorens
well, glad you got there. Gotta go. Enjoy
8:40 pm
72 Temple Owl
good night
