Thank you to everyone who's replied, it does mean a lot especially when it feels like illness is all around. My Dad being 91, Mrs F and now DIL. It isn't Covid though but the latest report is that she's still sedated and is having her lungs drained today I think. Youngest grandson keeps crying but my son and his GF are looking after him. I will give my son credit, he's always been there for his boys. Well, if we forget him leaving their mother but even then he was in close contact.

Thanks for that insight Terry, that's reassuring reading first hand experience of pneumonia. My sister had it actually when she was 2, though that was 5 years before I was born. It was touch and go at one point.
