A good friend ill in hospital. Root cause probably immune system failure after jab, but cannot be absolutely sure. I certainly cannot discuss that possibility, would be unkind. The reality of the likely personal losses ahead is hitting me today. Barring a medbed miracle, at a minimum this incident leads to a lifelong disability, for someone already struggling with multiple serious conditions. As an empath, this is hard; Is someone I care about and feel a connection with. A sad day, when I am meant to be enjoying myself in good company.

Two months ago my husband found his best friend dead in his hotel room of a heart attack 🥲 He had to call his wife, it has been so heartbreaking. 💔 I can’t count the number of sudden deaths, cancers in young persons, and new diagnoses of autoimmune diseases that have occurred in my town or people we know, including my own sister who was recently diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis-she has so many swollen and painful joints.

I know this is a war, but I feel so helpless when I see the casualties mounting. I am trying to work on accepting what is, but it’s very hard 🙏
