Because of long COVID, my dad will never walk on the beach again. He can no longer play accordion or guitar because of long COVID.

Because of long COVID, I am no longer a martial artist, dancer, distance runner, or athlete. I no longer feel energetic. I no longer have proper restful sleep. I have aged rapidly. #LongCovidAwarenessDay #LongCovid #ChronicIllness

@Shanmonster I'm so sorry that's awful. My husband recovered but never got his sense of taste or smell back but he luckily does not have that crushing fatigue or lung issues. I hope they find a treatment for you.

@Shanmonster 💔 So much loss that society is failing to acknowledge in its haste to forget about The Pandemic, and pretend it's all over now.

@Shanmonster I have lost my sex drive. Just as my partner finally got the testosterone Rx he has been fighting for for years.

@Shanmonster It's such an awful condition. I don't understand how people can be so blasé about it.

I hope you and your dad will get better over time. Best wishes! 💖
