For the past week I had symptoms of covid. Fever, cough, loss of taste. I tested positive then a day after it got hard to breathe. Hospitals won’t accept me because they said I look fine, not even pale or anything and because I am only 20 yrs old. Even if I tested positive I wouldn’t die, it’s not that dangerous for me. And that’s all bs. My sister and I had no choice but to go where my dad is admitted.
When they checked, my oxygen levels were already low. I was already in state of confusion though I don’t look like it. That explains why it feels like I am dreaming and I keep on burping.
My mom doesn’t want to pay for my bills. So my half sister helped, well it is her mom in vegas. She borrowed money from her past coteachers, her friends here in Philippines. My parents are rich. Dad’s rich, mom’s rich, a perfect ideal family from the outside. Relatives are jealous of me because acc to them I have everything. They don’t know how my parents actually treat me.
This is my 4th day in the hospital. It’s a little more expensive because my sister’s mom didn’t want to put me in the ward with all these covid patients. She asked for a private room. This is so embarrassing. I don’t know how to repay her. There are two rooms between me and my dad’s room. I doubt he even know that I am here. I am fine now I can breathe properly no need for that oxygen tank.
They said they don’t completely understand my case. Because I just suddenly got worse, no one in my age bracket got hospitalized for covid. I felt like I was dying, like I only need to close my eyes then I can go sleep forever. I was smiling before I really closed my eyes. I had a hard time breathing but it was peaceful and something kept on tellinge that I am dying. So I was holding this two rings I put as a necklace. One for me and one for my boyfriend. I thought I would never had the chance to give it to him. But then I woke up. I pressed this button and a nurse came to my room. Said I was sleeping for almost 26 hours. 26 hours wth.
Anyway they said they don’t know how it all happened. Maybe it really is just not my time yet. So now I just need to finish this iv. Then I can go home I think. I hope.. I can’t imagine how much money we need to pay just for a day.
