Curtis + Life update thing? (Patreon)

Okay, im having a really hard time today, and I keep hearing ”you’re jumping to conclusions! Calm down!” but the past few months I’ve had a bad feeling about something, it’s usually happened, so here’s what’s going on now and why I might be scattered.

im basically putting Ant into quarantine, starting today. We don’t KNOW if he’s positive for COVID yet, he hasn’t gone to get tested, but he told me last night he was feeling bad, and today, it’s getting worse, so I’m preparing for the worst. Idk how it could have happened - we’ve always been extremely careful, to the point that our family has NOT been happy with us for the past few months because we won’t let Eli go see anyone. But some things happened a week or so ago with our apartments, and we had some people coming in and out for reports and repairs and Ant was the one interacting with them face to face, and no, most of them didn’t even wear masks so.... thats all I can think. Which brings up the other fear: has he BEEN carrying it and only just now showing any symptoms? And we’ve been careless with him, because we thought we were safe from self isolating? This shit is getting really bad in Houston. I want to write it off as just another virus or something, but it’s been three days and he’s only had the fever and fatigue, no congestion or cough or anything “cold” like. He’s going to have to go get tested, but until we know for sure, I’m gonna have to play single parent + nurse + housekeeper while sleeping on the couch for a little while. If we’re lucky, which I am RARELY EVER, it’ll turn out to be nothing and he’ll be fine in a few days. If it’s what we’re afraid of, then... well. We’ll cross that bridge when we get there.

the reason this has me scared shitless is because im immunocompromised. And I don’t know for sure that Ant ISNT. I cant get this man to a doctor to save my life. All th medical expenses are usually delegated to Eli and Turbo. Which,,, in hindsight. Well. Yeah. But I guess we’ll see what happens. This week was supposed to be a relatively chill work week, and now... man.

idk. Just wish us luck. We’ve been so careful. We can’t afford to have this blindside us right now..
