If you have shortness of breath or other breathing problems, then that might be a sign you have Covid. Consult your doctor first and keep track of whatever symptoms you have.

I went to get tested today.  They said that I'll get the results by the the day after tommorow at most. I'm not very worried as I'm low risk and my symptoms aren't severe but it's going to suck being stuck in complete isolation if I do have it. Honestly though, it's pretty amazing that I made it this far without even gaving to go into quarantine.

[Jade Sinapu]

Low risk is not no risk.  I know you know.
If you have it and need to quarantine,  thank you if you do so,  as it might save someone who is higher risk.  And of course I do not want you to have it.  That would be very bad.
Hope you are ok.

Wellt the results came back negative. I guess it was just a very bad cold or something.

I have a 30cm tumour taking up the entirety of my abdomen from bladder to diaphragm. Iti s still unknown if it is cancerous.
In the next month I will be having major abdominal surgery to remove it, as well as to perform a complete hysterectomy (removal of the ovaries, womb and some associated tissue).

[Jade Sinapu]

Hi Loc,
I am sorry to hear you have a tumor.   If I can ask (And you don't have to answer) is it a single mass or is it more dendritic like?
We love you Loc, and wish only the best possible outcome.  I know you must be afraid.  I know I would be anyway.  Hoping it is benign.
I'm am tearing up now, can't see to type.  Hope you don't mind some big dumb GSD hugs.

Sorry to hear of all this, Loc. I wish you well during your surgery and recovery.

Hope it can be corrected without complications. Will keep you in our prayers.

From what I've been told, it is a single mass, partly fluid and partly liquid. It could be a cancer, a benign tumour, or an ovarian cyst gone insane. The original plan was to try and enact "fertility preservation" and just take the one ovary, run tests, and maybe put me back under as needed but as I was certain I don't want kids, we are taking the nuclear option and ripping out everything which, if it is cancer, it is likely to spread to first. Then if it is found to be cancer, I'll need to get hit with chemotherapy if we think it may not have been confined to the reproductive system. If it was confined or was non-cancerous then great, problem solved.

Looks like we might be going back on lockdown soon. We'll the first developed country to  go into lockdown twice. They say it will only be 2 weeks but they said that last time and it ended up being 2 months.

My dog Wanda stole items and damaged them.

Oh and it's smoky because of fires in Oregon and the smoke got into our house.

National,  you can only walk up to 500 meters outside of your house. The silly thing is, the virus is mainly being spread through specific communities but threy didn't want to make people mad so they made it nationawide.Also, here people don't really trust the government and they are terrible at following rules in general, so I suspect that they might enforce the lockdown with the miltary.

[Kobuk]

Well, it's official. I can no longer switch back to the classic Facebook look today. Seems this new FB version is now permanent starting today. I went through all my settings and controls and could not find anything to switch back to the classic look.  I liked the classic look. But now I'll just have to get used to a new screen/look. I switched to Dark Mode as it's easier on my eyesight.

The dog seems to have decided that my carpet is his personal bathroom. And yes, he is house trained and rarely has accidents, maybe we need to take him out more often.

That might be a sign that something is wrong, like a kidney problem or bladder infection.
