So, my mum has now been in hospital for over five weeks. She is now in the cardiothorastic ICU at Milpark. Yesterday our hearts filled with some relief as she was taken off the Ecmo machine and is now breathing independently. Alhamdulillah
Having a loved one in hospital with Covid is a terrible experience for all involved. At times we had gone days without updates from doctors, and depended on the whim of the nurses to tell us how mum was doing.
And we empathise with the nurses especially at this time who must navigate their own safety while caring for people who are gravely ill and infectious.

So, here I am sipping a coffee in the winter morning sun after recovering from Covid-19. Alhamdulillah.
It’s been a nightmare. And it all still feels surreal. I completed my final day at M&G and began an intensive immunosuppressive treatment for my recently diagnosed autoimmune disease so I was meant to self-isolate anyway. My mum had administered the treatment to me.
The next day, we got a call that changed our lives. My cousin had tested positive for Covid-19. We had been in contact with her. It felt wrong. It couldn’t possibly be. But we all went for tests.
