I was at my daughters for a much delayed birthday supper on Monday. Had not seen any family since first week in October, but go to school to teach every weekday so decided I had to see my grandbabies. All were healthy, or so we thought. We ordered an uber eats birthday treat meal for the two November birthdays I had missed because we did not trust eating out. My five year old granddaughter does go to school face to face, but my daughter and her husband both work or teach from home.
Then on way out of apartment for school on Friday morning and my daughter texts me that my granddaugter had fever and had it since Wed when they picked her up from school. That meant my school's covid protocols clicked in and I had to do a ton of paperwork and teach from home. Granddaughter saw some doctor that afternoon with my son in law, because by that afternoon my daughter had fever. Juliette tested negative for covid and strep on the quick test. Now we wonder. Because my daughter kept feeling worse and met her school nurse Saturday and tested positive. She has all the symptoms. NOW we wonder if the five year old had a false postive since she is the best contact for bringing it in.
And I will be calling my school nurse Monday morning to see if i need and qualify fo the quick tests our school has. Right now my ten days for the district to stay out ends on the 17th.
But it does bring out worries. This is my high allergy time of year due to a number of fall/winter pollens. I have a runny nose but no fever. My allergy medicine in controlling it and I took the mega dose of D when I got my daughter's phone call. Have managed to talk her into d, c zinc, and quercitine but not the large dose of D. She is Indiginous'' by ancestry verifed by dna testing. So I worry about her and worry about me catching it. The mother in me wants to run over there to nurse her. Not smart for a 72 year old.
. No issues that we know of from seeing my grandsons (4 and 6) on Saturday.
