    Bought a bike for one of my kids from a guy in a neighboring city. While we were messaging over FB Marketplace before meeting to buy the bike he tells me they're moving so his wife's mother can help take care of her. Turns out his very-much-in-shape, younger-side-of-40 wife caught covid last Mar, barely survived, then thinks she caught it again, and now she's been on oxygen ever since. When we met up she came with and I got to meet her. She could barely walk 50 yards and then she had to return to the car. That's honestly my worst fear, being disabled long-term. I was chatting with him while the kids all rode bikes and the guy was in tears while he talked about how much their lives had changed. He said she has an hour or two where she's alert and herself but the rest of the time she's either sleeping, in pain, or out of it. Crazy sad.
