Pre-surgery prep call for #occulttetheredcord rendered apparent, even, + life-limiting by #LongCovid left me dumbfounded. Caller from hospital has indeed heard of this happening; is fascinated enough to ask my symptoms, confirm it was Covid, ! at that; and shares #StCharlesBend is no longer masking.
March 2020: Costco is upended in our collective prepping frenzy because ONE teen has #Covid in Seattle. March 2023: I'm genuinely impressed with a stranger's mild curiosity that ANYONE, let alone a bunch of us, are having NEUROSURGERY in hopes of fixing #LongCovid.
