COVID stalks my extended family.
Aug. 12th, 2021 11:41 amStalk the First: One of my mother's caregivers called in sick with COVID. Thank goodness Mom wasn't exposed. Good Sister, however, had to scramble madly to find another caregiver. We really can't leave Mom alone.
Stalk the Second: Exmother got infected two weeks ago. She didn't tell her kids because she didn't want to worry them, and was hoping she could tell them when she got better. Classic Exmother. Well, despite being vaccinated she isn't better yet. Exbrother in particular is displeased, I'm told. I called Ex to ask how she's doing, and she seems to be OK so far.
Some of you may remember that Exmother isn't my favorite person. She's manipulative, overbearing, narcissistic, and two-faced. My only real concerns are Ex; her brother, who's a good guy; and my son*. I just checked this here journal, and Ex lost her father about four years ago.
Oh: One of Ex's LA cousins has lung cancer. Aside from being a spoiled adulteress, she's OK.
Sheesh.
*My son who once called his maternal grandmother a bitch to her face for how she'd treated me. On the one hand, I told him in no uncertain terms that he doesn't get to do that. On the other, he stood up for me.
