Amy Klobuchar's Husband Coughs Up Blood And Tests Positive
medium.com ^ | Mar 23, 2020

Posted on 03/23/2020 8:06:41 AM PDT by Helicondelta

I have news that many Americans are facing right now: my husband John has the coronavirus. We just got the test results at 7 a.m. this morning. While I cannot see him and he is of course cut off from all visitors, our daughter Abigail and I are constantly calling and texting and emailing. We love him very much and pray for his recovery. He is exhausted and sick but a very strong and resilient person.

John started to feel sick when I was in Minnesota and he was in Washington D.C. and like so many others who have had the disease, he thought it was just a cold. Yet he immediately quarantined himself just in case and stopped going to his job teaching in Baltimore.

He kept having a temperature and a bad, bad cough and when he started coughing up blood he got a test and a chest X-ray and they checked him into a hospital in Virginia because of a variety of things including very low oxygen levels which haven’t really improved. He now has pneumonia and is on oxygen but not a ventilator.

I am no doctor but I believe that coughing up blood is a BAD thing.

We pray for his recovery.

Sure seems to be running rampant through the elite political class.

If I share such information, it will be including a request for prayers.

Let’s hope and pray Mr Amy gets cured of covid-19 and Amy gets cured of her leftism.

“While this is his story and not mine, I wanted to let my colleagues and constituents know that since John and I have been in different places for the last two weeks and I am outside the 14-day period for getting sick, my doctor has advised me to not get a test. As everyone is aware, there are test shortages for people who need them everywhere and I don’t qualify to get one under any standard.”

Wonder if he has underlying?

I read the whole thing.

It left a bad taste in my mouth.

I am sorry for her husband’s illness. Pray that he recovers fully.

Damn.

I don’t really wish this on anyone.

Well maybe Nancy and Chuck.

But not this guy, or even Amy really.

It’s strange how many famous or famous-adjacent people have caught this thing. I don’t know anyone who has it, and I don’t think I know anyone who knows anyone who has it (judging from Facebook, so ...). My cousin and her husband think they might have had it and recovered, but they were not tested.

Meanwhile, Klobuchar’s husband, John Bessler, is not very old, 52. Coughing up blood is never good.
