Worried for frontline NHS DP

He is asthmatic and has a heart issue which was being investigated by his GP when this all blew up.
He is dealing with CV patients every single day and has been writing extra shifts and because people are off sick. There isn't enough PPE to go around and people are stealing gloves and hand sanitizer 
I feel sick with worry for him. He could die. Other medical staff have died in other countries. Some didn't have any underlying health conditions at all.

My fears are coming into fruition.
He had a fever over the weekend and is going to be tested tomorrow. He says he's struggling to breathe. He's coughing.
Last week I had a dream that he died.
I am so fucking scared.

I'm guessing he is now self isolating? I'm hoping that he is OK and only gets it mild. Wishing DP a quick recovery and thank him so, so much for everything that he does/done. X

Oh that must be so worrying for you, TheBeesKnee. Wishing him all the best, and only a mild bout.

Of course.

Hope he gets well soon. It’s scary isn’t it? I’ve been where you are (DP also in a shielded group) and now on day 10 things seem to be improving 💐
