He's 85 and he fell 3 or 4 days ago(sorry, I haven't had much sleep since so my time is a little screwed up). He didn't hit his head or break anything, just skinned his knees and bruised his elbow, but it really shook him up. I brought him home with me and have been watching over him the whole time. At first he was eating and drinking fine., and his oxygen was good. Then he started going down hill. He ate less and less and couldn't drink water without coughing and spitting it back up, and he has extreme diarreah . His oxygen went down to 89 and his pulse went up to 122. Got extremely weak. I had to call the ambulance though I was afraid to. Of course the doc says he has COVID which is BULLSHIT!

I would have looked into sepsis, especially if he was getting confused. Can be caused for UTI or respiratory infection. It may be why he fell in the first place
They said he has no signs of congestion or infection in the lungs. I said that sounds pretty strange for a RESPIRATORY infection! He said, well sometimes people get COVID in the bowels!!
Fuck that. Hes trying to declare covid for kickback.
