eve Posted May 12, 2020 Report Share Posted May 12, 2020 Did your doctor phone you Jazz? So good to hear of lovely helpful neighbours and pleased your mechanic came up trumps Owl. Wispa will be a happy girl to get her day out at the reserve. Good luck with your treatment Suzeanna xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owl Posted May 12, 2020 Report Share Posted May 12, 2020  Jazz, I have just had a phone chat with my sister who lives in your area. One of her in-laws is just recovering from Covid and doctor advised her to sleep on front as better for lung function. There are also some breathing exercises recommended by consultant at Romford hospital. Will try to find the link otherwise will ask sister. If you google breathing exercise for covid I think there are various kinds.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owl Posted May 12, 2020 Report Share Posted May 12, 2020 Just seen that the breathing advice is being contested. https://fullfact.org/health/viral-coronavirus-breathing-advice-needs-context/ So best to check with own doctor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazz Posted May 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2020 they told me to sleep sitting up. tried that but slide down and cough, so best on my side. cough has come back daytime so that and toothache effecting my jaw, im not a happy girl doctor rung, need to see the specialist and see what he says. thought I had, he said they are there but tiny. I was daft enough 2 days ago to say anything else! so ive had something each day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackmagic Posted May 12, 2020 Report Share Posted May 12, 2020  The videos shown of people bing treated in Italy showed them lying on their front and it said it was because it made breathing easier   good news on the car, owl. The skill of diagnosing and repairing cars is going as modern cars rely on a computer to diagnose a fault. My local garage are also very good at sourcing solutions. It is a miserable wet night here for a change and due to be -1 tonight.

griff Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 We have been lucky with our online shopping, first one was a bit of a problem but after that it's been o.k. Mum was offered the government parcel but she said she could do online, and my dad could go and get stuff if needed but on the whole it's not been too bad for us We had a call last week from the carers place, it was really good as they are here to help with everything.... including my problems with next door! They also sent a pack through and I was able to print out cards so that my dad can go to the priority shopping slots...and Steve too and go and get stuff for me, it's taken me a long time to admit that I need a carer...I now have 3 lol Owl... hope you can get a replacement part for the car Suzeanna, hope you feel o.k today and not too tired xx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owl Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 That sounds good about the carers, griff. Drove to garage, indicator at first ok, then not, then started again. Signalled left whenever we went over a bump in the road! Mechanic thought it just needed a bit more cleaning, so sprayed some more extra special cleaner/lube for electrics and left to soak in for half an hour. Seems ok now, but won't be going any further than reserve anyway for time being. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yantan Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 Well that's good news Griff. I was worried about you going out. You are far too independent for your own good! We've had a lovely paddock session with Henry and May. Some very good friends of ours bought us 3 sessions there. How kind was that đ  1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griff Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 Awwww Marion, that's so lovely...dare I ask, did may manage an outdoor wee?? I will still pop out but only once and very early on, I thought it was really kind of the lady to get in touch with my mum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yantan Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 She did a pee yesterday as soon as she was off-lead and came to a stop at the other side of the paddock. Today she excelled herself by doing wees and a poop đđ It's my neighbours birthday today. First visitor was her oldest daughter who came up the path, didn't go in but stood just outside the front door to talk to her mum who was on the threshold with only about 3ft between them đ Now her youngest daughter is here with at least one of her own kids and they are all sitting in the garden round a table with far from the recommended social distance between them. I don't know if they are unaware of the recommendations and rules, or they're too thick to follow them or they just don't care. It doesn't bode well for our 16 wk period of isolation. Our front doors are next to each other with only about 18 inches separating them âš Â Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griff Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 Oh god Marion, it's not great about your neighbour...how approachable is she? Could you explain and ask that she request her visitors use the back door due to ruby being on chemo and how close the front doors are Oooooooo well done may!!!! That's brilliant, I guess it's the dogs that are the issue then?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
