I have some sad news I need to share with every one. Last week my father contracted COVID. We had to put him into hospice yesterday. He’s 83 years old and was diagnosed with Parkinson’s about 4 years ago. There’s no question that the Parkinson’s was a complicating factor in the diseases severity. I may go into a little more detail later, but I seriously doubt that this would have been the outcome if he hadn’t had the Parkinson’s. Visiting him in the hospital was the saddest thing I’ve ever had to witness. Fortunately he seems to be more comfortable now that he’s at hospice.

Anyway I just wanted to post this so there’s no misunderstanding. COVIDD is real. I know it. I’ve witnessed it. That doesn’t mean that the danger to the general public is significant, but to a small but significant portion of the public it’s real and it’s lethal. People like Dave at X22Report need to get their facts straight when they say it’s nothing more than the flue. It may be no worse than the flue for most people, but for some people in certain risk categories, it’s far more lethal than the flue, and apparently spreads more readily.

I just want you all to be informed when you talk about COVID. It’s a virus that was unleashed on the world that is deadly to a small percentage of the population. And those initial deaths were used to scare the rest of the population who are at low risk into believing it was a serious risk to them. That’s the hoax, but the virus is real.

Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. If I don’t respond to everyone don’t take it personal, I’ve just got a lot on my plate at the moment.

Regards + prayers to you and your family.

For me at least my perspective has always been: the virus is real, the numbers are fake.

Ouch. Had no idea about your father. Your synopsis is appreciated and it’s understood, here. Quite true and accurate.

It’s beyond cruel and unfathomable that this bio-warfare was unleashed to hamstring a good president and rig an election.

May God bring His mystical peace of the Holy Spirit into your father and upon him, deeply into his own quieting spirit.

Peace be with you and Comfort, as well.

FATHER GOD,

Be with Mike and his father during this time. May they share good times and express their love for each other. May draw close to You at this time, LORD & SAVIOR.

We know with You all things are possible. If it is Your Will, touch mbrfl’s father with healing and lift Covid-19 from him. May Parkinson’s Disease bow at JESUS’ Name.

Thank You for Your only Son JESUS CHRIST Who won the victory over sin and death. By His stripes we are healed.

In JESUS’ Name we pray. AMEN.
