My mom has covid, its been over a week into our quarentine and she's not getting better. She's basically slept for 2 days now, I can barely get her to eat. My brother and step dad are spending their quarentine at the ranch to do the work out there, so I'm alone, taking care of her and our numerous animals. I'm not doing okay. I can't tell if I'm sick for the same reason my mom couldn't, we have conditions that give us those symptoms. I'm exhausted, and I hope its from doing the chores myself. I don't know what to do. She's not getting better. She's hurting so much. I'm scared. I haven't been scared like this since she had a brain infection and almost died. She's getting worse, and I don't know what to do. We're poor, esential workers, and the only reason we aren't homeless is because my grandma lets us live in her house (she's staying at her mom's to take care of her, she isn't doing good either, but that's due to her age.) I don't wanna loose my mom, she's the best person in the world, I can't loose her. I'm terrified, and the fact that so many people kept tossing out their fucking conspiracy theories about this damn virus just makes this worse. Since this all started I've had people scream at me that all of this is fake, the masks do nothing, this is all some governments fault, and that theyre protesting by not wearing a mask!?!?!!! And now MY MOTHER IS SICK AND SHE IS GETTING WORSE!!! I PRETENDED TO AGREE WITH THESE PEOPLE JUST TO GET THEM TO SHUT UP AND NOW MY MOTHER HAS THE VIRUS!!! SHE HAS RESPROTORY ISSUES, SHE'S IMMUNOCOMPROMISED, AND IS IN CONSTANT PAIN FROM FIBRO!!!! SHE'S SO FUCKING VULNERABLE AND I COULD LOOSE HER!!!! I'M SCARED AS HELL AND IF I CAN EVER GO BACK TO WORK I WON'T BE ABLE TO JUST NOD PEOPLE AWAY ANYMORE I CAN'T!!! SHE IS SUFFERING AND I LIVE IN THE COUNTRY WITH THE MOST ENTITLED ASSHOLES WHO DON'T GIVE A DAMN THAT THEY PUT HER IN DANGER!!! SHE WORE A MASK, A GOOD ONE, SHE USED HANDSANITIZER, SHE STAYED AWAY FROM PEOPLE!!! SHE DID EVERYTHING!!! YA KNOW WHO DIDN'T??!!! MY BROTHER, MY STEP DAD, AND HIS FAMILY!!! EVERYONE PUT HER AT RISK AND NOW THEY'VE LEFT ME ALONE TO CARE FOR HER CUZ DESPITE THIS VIRUS SUPPOSEDLY NOT BEING THAT BAD THEY'VE ISOLATED THEMSELVES IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE!!!!
I'm done with this. I don't want conspiracies, I don't want propaganda, I don't want fake treatments, and I don't want her to go.
