And the hits keep on coming. Jess went to the hospital in the daytime while I worked, and I went in the evening. Neither of us saw the doctor. Imagine my surprise when I pulled up his patient portal and found a note from his doctor saying that she hoped to discharge with home PT tomorrow. Uh, no. Earlier in the day, the PT consult was talking about how bad his condition is and how much help he needs. And you think he can be discharged home? Also, he has COVID! He's only been symptomatic for 4 days, which means that he's still wildly contagious. He had a fever yesterday! What the actual fuck, people. I'm waiting for his doctor to call me back, but it was stress I didn't need.

Jess has a scratchy throat, which could just be sitting for hours with a mask on, or could be allergies, or could be Covid. Hard to say. They'll test again today and we shall see. If they've got it, I won't be far behind, since we live in each other's pocketses.

Either way, it was not the best evening I've had. I have not been particularly impressed with St. Joe's this time. They've been seriously lacking in communication with the family, and Dad's so deaf that I figure he's getting 1/8th of what they're saying. Normally, they're the good option! I honestly have no idea what the hell is going on. We'll be calling the patient advocate promptly at 9, to see what we can do, because this is total bullshit.

Aside from that, nothing exciting going on. My sister is feeling better and testing negative. She's going back to work today, as she has done her CDC mandated 5 day quarantine. Work was dull, but relatively busy. Today will probably not be very busy, so I'll probably be working the pending returns queue. I have a phone interview for a job adjacent to the one I lost out on. I'm not getting invested until they hand me an offer letter, but I'll do my best. I'm hoping the laundry service we hired does not show up at 9, because I don't believe they want to hear Yoda barking his face off.

Hopefully, the doctor calls early and we can get things straightened out. That would be helpful.

Okay, going to get myself together for work. Everyone have a wonderful day!
