Sweetie, being sick doesn't mean "Oh, I can work now." Please rest and sleep. I'm hoping you have the flu and not Covid, but whatever, let your body be your guide. Glad you have the weighted blanket, those are awesome. Sending prayers and best wishes for your quick recovery.
Cory needs to be very careful, even with a negative result. I didn't show symptoms/test positive until 5 days after my bf tested positive. Rest up and stay hydrated! We love you all and hope you'll be okay.
Yes to this!! There are false negatives, so it’s best to wait sometimes a few days to get a more accurate test result or to get tested again
@@margaritaescutia5615 True that!👍🏻👍🏻
The kids got the rapid, her and Cory got the longer test done
@@Tina2448827 I understand that. I tested the day after my bf tested positive and came back negative on that test, started showing symptoms 4 days later and tested positive. We're saying that an initial negative doesn't mean you're in the clear, you have to monitor yourself for a few days after and retest if symptoms appear. This virus goes from family member to family member quickly, so be aware and be cautious.
@@septemberfullwood3782 - I would add, that if it were my family, I would test everyone again anyway, because as they are learning from tracking this virus over 10 months is that the majority of people are asymptomatic days before they show symptoms, & some Covid positive people never develop symptoms at all, but still can infect others.
I’m just so sorry for Kristen, as I have developed sudden, chronic asthma in the last 4 months so I can sympathize. I’ll pray she gets through the course of this without feeling any worse than she does now, & that Cory & the kids stay healthy.
My husbands old job kept pressuring employees to come back into the office. My husband ended up being exposed to someone who was positive. Thankfully he tested negative..but his work ended up having 11 people test positive. Most of them went and initially had a rapid test done which told them they were negative. Then within 24-48 hours told them they were actually positive. I feel like they need to get rid of the rapid tests all together. I hope your family is safe and healthy and that you have a speedy recovery and get LOTS of rest. Take care. ❤️
The bubblewrap and the socks just melted my heart.
Exactly Kristin, Cold air is more dense and has a higher oxygen content. It's good for you, may help with your comfort if your fevers get worse, AND if you have the windows open and a fan going, it will be flushing the air through your room and not giving the virus in your breaths a chance to build up and get circulated through the rest of the house. Wishing you the best sweetie.
This reminded me of an western movie where a doctor's wife was arguing with a ranch cook about opening the windows during a flu outbreak in the winter.
First just accept that you can't do anything but watch movies, color and things that are relaxing, You are healing!!!!! Juice, soup, bouillon, anything that will give you comfort. There is nothing to do but you!!! I actually took a Reiki course, that was helpful! Eating pineapple is super good for your lungs! We are all praying for you!! Loving you so much and as always thanks for sharing! We're all in this together!
My best friend has been ill with it for over 3 weeks. Been treated at the hospital twice. I’m recovering from breast cancer and have one more surgery in February. I’m hoping to stay Covid free. Please rest, stay hydrated and measure your oxygen levels. Take Tylenol if you get a fever. Praying for you and hope Cory and the kids stay healthy. Your sense of taste and smell should return at some point. Nice seeing the second kitchen. Reminds me of Cory’s picture in my kitchen video. One of my favorites!
That house is the PERFECT quarantine house lol
Please get well soon. I spent time in the hospital a few years ago with pneumonia. I know what it's like to feel like you can't breathe. Listening to you at times brought back some bad, scary memories. I hope for a speedy recovery and that everyone else in your family stays healthy! Be smart and get some rest. Work will be there when you are better.
Be cautious with the rapid test. My grandson tested negative on a Monday(at his place of employment) He still wasn’t feeling well on Thursday and asked to be tested again(not rapid test) he was positive! His mom also tested positive. Thankfully they didn’t have severe cases, but felt lousy for 2 weeks. So lucky you have an entire living space to quarantine. Take care, the best thing is REST.
Feel Better!!!
One thing you might want to try since you said cool air seems to help is sleeping with a cool mist vaporizer/humidifier. I’ve had asthma all my life and it has always helped me breathe whenever I’ve been sick.
We just got over it. Still tired 2 weeks out. REST as much as you can, lots of vitamins, fluids! Sure hope you feel better soon!
Wow I’m breathless and tired just watching you. Hope you are well soon.
i feel supremely lucky that when i tested positive for covid back in december (my quarantine ended the week of christmas, which was another lucky thing!) that my symptoms were no worse than the mildest of colds in addition to the loss of smell and taste. the cough lingered for a few weeks afterward, but most of our cases up in northern new england have been about what i had. i hope you feel better!! g'bye!!!
Has your taste and sense of smell returned?
@@EJproductionsxD yeah - my taste started to come back first and then a few days later my smell. i haven't had any of the scary recovery symptoms. the cough has FINALLY gone away.
Yes, weighted blankets are great. It like getting a light hug that really helps getting a clam feeling. Some (at least the one I got) keeps in heat since it doesn't have any air flow but it can cause you to sweat. But look around. Hope you start feeling better.
Brain fog Kristen is hilarious. I hope you feel better soon!
get a pulse ox thingy for your finger, so you can check you oxygen levels and can give you more direction on if you need more medical support. Take care
We have one I check it every once in a while just to be safe plus mums vulnerable better to be safe than sorry hopefully she will be vaccinated soon send my love to u all from England xx 💖💖💖❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Just have kids and Cory tested again, because some brands of rapids can give a false negative.
The tests can also be false positives.
@@603bornlivefreeordie5 well people normally don't die from a cold. Why are you even a subscriber if you can't be supportive of her plight. Did you even watch her video or did you just come here to spew false misinformation. Please get your facts straight. Speak to your doctor, someone who is knowledgeable in the medical profession.
@@603bornlivefreeordie5 Idiot it's not a cold far from, it's much worse. Like Jen said people don't die from a cold or get late sequelae
like you see with covid19. People are dying because of people like you who doesnt take it serious.
Didn’t read through all the comments so not sure if anyone mentioned it, but information I heard from a Covid nurse is that it’s imperative you sleep on your stomach to keep your lungs from collapsing. Best wishes for a speedy recovery Kristin.
When my wife and I had it, we slept. A lot. It's good for you! Prayers for quick recovery!
Feel better soon Kristen! And you guys have the PERFECT setup for quarantining with that beautiful in-law suite! So cool. I love that you have outside access fir fresh air and in case you get a little stir crazy inside. Best wishes for mild symptoms and a quick recovery.
Get better Kristine!
Cory and the kids need to check for symptoms that might pop-up later or get sick after.
And please, get rest! Work can wait, your health cannot. Your health is priority #1 right now!
Best wishes
Kristen, so sorry you're going through this, but so glad you're able to be home and fairly comfortable! And FYI, our homes are so well-sealed these days that they literally get low on oxygen inside! I bet the cold air relief you're getting is simply more oxygen from that fresh outdoor air.
I love you Kristen. You are very strong and I know you will be okay. I’m still hoping that this is just a regular old upper respiratory issue. My love to Grangie and Grark. Having their baby girl feel bad must be driving them crazy. I need to check out the weighted blankets. I have always liked the heaviness of several blankets even during warm months. I’m sorry Atlas needs a weighted blanket, but I’m glad he has one to comfort him. Why the green onion in your Mac and cheese? That sounds like a Cory thing. Chell’s gifts are the best! Hang in there. ❤️
Try to do some lung exercises. Deep breath in, hold for 5 seconds, let it out, do that two times and then on the 3rd time cough hard on the breath out. Do that all twice and then lay on your tummy for 5 -10 mins and cough when needed. I did this and it helped SO much!
I did this exercise a long time ago after I had a pneumonia in hospital. It really helps a lot!
Fluids, vitamins, rest, food. That is the best advice. Also weighted blankets are amazing! One thing to note, and it good you are moving around, watch your fingernail beds- if they turn less pink( white to blue) call for help immediately. Do. Not. Wait.
Love you all, be safe, and keep breathing. ❤
Rest, a lot, if you get the joint pain, it's aweful so rest. I lost my smell and taste 23 years ago from a head injury. Every thing became "white on rice". Hope you get yours back. Mine is never going to be fully cured, but there's always crunchy, smooth, or hot or cold!
I have asthma and I have to say during an attack. The most important thing is to remain calm. Getting freaked out and scared only makes it worse.
I send you all the good vibes! I hope you are all better very soon!
Awww Kristen :( Feel better soon! And just remember, lack of focus when your sick is your body's way of saying, "Shhhh....settle down, we need to rest!"
Lol dont try to work, please! Rest and relaxation. Your body is telling you this, dont go against it.
Funny the way things work out. The way your house is set up is PERFECT for quarantining people, lol.
Its so CUTE that you think you can be THAT sick and STILL get some work done!
Take it easy and feel better! I had COVID just over a month ago, and I had a new symptom every two days. After two days that symptom would go away and a new one would start. On day 5 my sense of smell went away and I agree that it is one of the weirdest things. I hope your family stays safe and that you recover quickly!
Rest up and stay safe Kristen! Don't overwork yourself. Mummy holiday means lots of movies, doing fun things (as much as you can) and resting up!
I enjoy rewatching videos from this time period, so surreal. I got it in February, 2022 when everyone at work got it. Woke up achy and high fever. Tested positive. Took ivermectin, fever broke overnight, and I was just fine the next day. Never jabbed, never caught it again.
Aw, Crum, Kristen. =\ The gifts are so thoughtful. So glad your house is set up the way that it is. I know you must be missing the kids and Cory something fierce...how are you feeling this evening? I hope you are able to get a little rest. Bless your heart. Feel better. Prayers and good thoughts. =)
Hang in there Kristen! I hope you feel better soon. Keep taking deep breaths and moving around as often as you can.
That's what gets me, people are so careful and get it anyway...
I hope you feel better quickly!
Please get better! Your family needs you and so does my family and I. We are praying for you a fast recovery
Get well soon Kristen! Rest and enjoy that cold air and weighted blanket and please don't worry about work stuff etc. You're healing and everything else can wait.
Noooo!!! Kristin!! 😭😭😭😭 Praying for you all.
I will pray for a prompt recovery for you Kristen, do not overwork yourself. Be safe my friend
Oh nooo. I hope you feel better soon. I had it back in June and I was so sick with it. I had all your same symptoms plus a never ending pounding headache and chills. I was wearing 2 hoodies and under 2 blankets. I took very long naps(like 3-4hours) and was still tired. Feel better soon. Praying for a speedy recovery.
Kristen, you are exactly like I was back at the beginning of November. The best advice I have is DO NOT lay or sleep on your back. Lay on your tummy if possible, or your side. It will help your breathing. I totally understand everything you describe--it was identical to my experience! I also have asthma...now I have REALLY BAD asthma; still struggling over 2 months later. Praying you feel better soon, and avoid the long-term aftermath! Love and hugs to all of you in this challenging time! --Lori :)
Ok Kristin, I am so sorry to see you going thru this. You are now on my daily prayer list and I hope you recover fully and completely. Thank you for the effort this video must have been. Sending
The wildest thing is the zero taste! Not even the "I'm sick so it all tastes like cardboard" but a nonexistent flavor!!
When me and the husband were quarantined we expected to get a bunch of housework done. The fatigue got the best of us for most of the duration though! Hope your days go by faster than mine did. I was ready to get back to work.
Hey Kristen & family I am so sorry your sick Keisten. I am so glad that Cory & the kiddos tested negative. Thankfully you are able to safely quarantine & you have people who love you & can help bring you things you need. Your in my thoughts & prayers. I hope you feel better so on. Your a strong beautiful phenomenal woman & your a fighter you will get thru this. Sending you lots of love & prayers. Blessings from Washington State. 🥰🙏🥰🙏
I hope you feel better. I know when I had Covid I got an incentive spirometer to work on breathing exercises. Also drinking fluids and sleep. Rest on your stomach when you can to help expand your lungs. I hope your husband doesn’t test positive. He may want to consider getting tested again in about a week to be sure.
I remember when you moved into that house I was wondering if you'll ever use that kitchen in the near future. Good thing you have it! Get well soon, sending a hug 🧡
I Will Pray for u to get better!🙏🏼🙏🏼 I hope nothing but positive thoughts & Prayers! & I hope u get better. Just be careful & I hope that u take it easy Kristin & just relax. 🙏🏼🙏🏼 again I hope nothing but positive & prayers!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Oh man, Kristen, feel better soon
YOU ARE A TUFFIE......Your gonna kick co-butt!
praying for you all!
God Bless you Kristin! 😘 well...now you can have a whole new bonding experience with yer hubby...dun duuun dunnn duuuunnn..............
........adhd memory fun. What an interesting journeys us humans have. Hang in there....just REST and giggle at silly things. Here's to robust recovery!
Guess its a good thing you guys didn't rip out the second kitchen. Sending thoughts of healing, positive vibes, and lots of prayers!!
Take it easy, Kristen! I had COVID in September and the fatigue/exhaustion only got worse over time. I couldn't focus on anything and eventually barely left my couch because going upstairs to the room left me winded and achy. Please take care of yourself, you don't need to power through with work. If your body is screaming for rest, sleep is the best thing for you. Trust me. Keeping you, Cory, and the kids in my thoughts!
Also, highly recommend Pedialyte Popsicles, especially if you develop nausea!
Please get well soon. Covid is no joke. Right now my daughter her fiance my granddaughter my granddaughters other grandparents and her father all have Covid. Ive not seen any of them for 19 days. My daughter was just taken to the hospital by ambulance. She has asthma. Im scared and i not allowed to be there. So scared. Please take care of yourself.
Positive vibes sending your way.
OMG Prayers coming for you. I got short of breath listening to you. I hope you dont have it but the no smell or taste makes me think yes as one of my son's had your symptoms and he had it. So main thing plz dont worry about work. Rest..rest..rest. I know being a mom we can't just rest but that is the best thing for you. Make sure to sit up as much as you can to protect your lungs but do it resting style. If that makes sense. It's a great set up you have so you can quarantine. Love and hugs...
You are legit Cory right now lol! All jokes aside. Get better soon. The shortness of breath is scary. ♥️
Awww Kristen, please get well soon, also i am happy the house makes it easier to be on yourself!
I’m so sorry you’re sick! Hoping you make a speedy recovery. ❤️❤️❤️
Girrrl... please feel better soon! I'm glad your fam is caring for you so well!
Not much of a vacation if you are sick. I hope you are feeling better soon. Just rest and take care of yourself.
Make sure to sleep on your stomach, it helps your lungs a ton apparently! Sending lots of healing vibes~❤️
Hang in there and hope you feel better soon! 🤒😷❤️
My friend got Covid a couple weeks ago. After temps of 103 for 3-4 days she went to the hospital got the IV meds 3 days and she went home to recover. Drink lots of fluids. Bad to get dehydrated. Hugs
Hope you feel better soon Kristen. I sure hope that the kids and Cory do not get Covid. Rest and get well soon.
Feel better sweetheart, I’ll be praying for you. ❤️
Literally going through this right now. My Fiance had the breathing issues. Doctor told him to move every 2 hours to prevent blood clots just a little especially with breathing issues, drink lots of water, rest, eat fruits and veggies. I've lost smell and have low appetite have pedialyte handy incase you get nauseated.
Two things you can get to help are a pulse ox. If your oxygen level dips into the 80s seek medical attention. An incentive spirometer. Using that each hour 10 times will help keep your lungs strong and can keep it from progressing to pneumonia. They have them on Amazon. Just a bit of advice from a covid icu nurse. Feel better.
I’m so sorry you got Covid. I can hear how you’re struggling to breathe. Sending you virtual hugs and prayers for swift healing. By the way, do you have an oximeter to keep tabs on your blood oxygen level?
Yes an oximeter is so important
I had it a year ago in February , I didn’t lose taste or smell. I had a rash on my feet. It went to my chest immediately so I started mucinex and water to get the crap out of my lungs. And inhalers both albuterol and a steroid inhaler. A steamer worked really well to. It lasted 1 month. Take care hope you feel better soon.
My husband got a positive and a week later I got sick. I still don't have any smell or taste except I know hot sauce is spicy haha. I couldn't quarantine anyone because my hubby is my 3rd child. So I applaud you on this mini mom vacation haha. Get better soon xoxox
get well soon Kristen i will pray for your healing to survive this pandemic 🙏
Ah so sorry to hear your poorly, do hope you get better super quick love when you do videos too. Have always loved your quick witted humour. Much love from Spain 🤗🤗🤗
Oh nooo not you Kristen, Its okay to not be able to focus. Where do you think you caught it from? My parents and I had covid back in March. My mom and I survived. Unfountenley my dad got worse and passed away at the hospital in April. Get some liquid "Elderberry" and "Immpower" immune system vitamins. Its worth having it in hand. I hope you feel better soon.
Kristin, I hope you get better soon!! I know when I had Covid it was really hard to relax( I'm a mom of 3 boys). Im not so lucky that I could quarantine like you are. Im thankful that it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be.
Your kiddos are so sweet!!
Cory you are doing awesome! Yall are amazing! Kristin idk if what all you have in your pharmacy, but I took Oscillococcinum ( 3 times a day), Zinc, Vitamin-C , one a day Vitamin, and I drank a lot of fluids!
Get well soon!!
Quarantine lair... Seems like a good enough name for me lol
I had it back in March, and the cold air thing is true. My wife opened every window, got the air flowing and it felt so good! Hope you recover soon!
Don't overdo yourself Kristen, sleep, sleep, sleep and drink plenty. I wish you a speedy recovery!
Dang, sounds really tough, I hope you get better real soon! You're a soldier for staying so positive too!
Also, I felt a bit warm when you explained how it felt similar to having ADD... having ADD, I felt understood when you said that. I wish more people would understand like you do (preferably without that involving any kind of harm or sickness of course).
Our thoughts are with you & your family, I hope you are feeling better soon!
OMG Kristen...we don't want you to sacrifice your health or your family's either just to get a video out to us...please take good care of yourself...this stuff can be very dangerous! Your in my prayers my fellow Oklahoman!! Get better soon and we will see you when you can breathe and feel better! Prayers hun!!
*Do you know or possibly pinpoint where/when you may have been exposed? I'd be curious to find out where I contracted it*
Kids are so sweet when you don't feel good. Praying your symptoms don't get worse 🙏
REST!!! And get well soon!! Praying for you and family!!
I had ...something... starting early March. I had picked hubby up at LAX a few days before. Then I started feeling fluish. Achey, tired, low fever. Then a cough that was unending. Then the utter exhaustion. My oxygen measurements were under 90, but doc said to not go to hospital yet. I was soooo tired, I was crawling to the bathroom! I had a cough and no energy or air until about August. But I had a test in April - negative. A blood test in July was also negative! So what did I even have? I was VERRRRRY sick. If it was flu, it was the absolute worst one I've ever had!
Then in December I had tonsillitis, still have a fever, so 2 more tests, 1 was just today. Living in L.A., the drs are just assuming any sick person has it because it's so out of control here. But I don't think I have it, I've rarely left the house at all....
Drink lots of water, take more vitamin C and D (2000iu ) also protein. Take a rest whenever you feel tired. Boil some chicken noodle soup, when it boils, go smell that. That's how I gained my smell back. Also get some air flow. I remember there's a window there? Stay warm, though!!!
Sending you great big air hugs! Stay strong, we are all thinking of you & your family.
Best wishes to you, hope you recover soon. Covid is not something you want to get, let's hope this whole thing will come to an end soon.
I'm praying for your healing and speedy recovery, Kristen. Also praying for Cory, Chell, Atlas, Grangie and Grark's good health. Love you all.
i love her attitude.
I would recommend that you tell Cory to get you a pulse oximeter to check your oxygen saturation now. Any reading under 95-96 means you need to be at the hospital. Plus, your past medical history of having a form of asthma in the past puts you at an elevated risk.
i love m’y weighted blanket except I can’t sleep with it on. I toss around so much in my sleep the first night I used it I woke up in a panic because I couldn’t move, maybe mine is just too heavy lol. I use mine or lounging and nap, relieves all the tension in my muscles it’s amazing
Thinking and praying for your recovery Kristen! Thank goodness for your
“Gramma kitchen” separate from Cory, Chell and Atlas. What a way to get some
“MOMMY TIME” NOT! lol
The best part of all this, is the “reunification “ with you and your family, once you are better!
I can’t wait!
Until then, take care of YOU!!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Get well soon and don't work just take a rest and focus on getting better your family loves and needs you
just best wishes
I hope you start feeling better soon, Kristen! Lots of love ❤
Just rest up and don't feel the need to get work done, focus on taking care of you right now.
Moving some is good, but I don't think it takes much to help prevent blood clots. Keep the fluids going. Take care and feel better soon. Probiotics might help you heal faster too - there are some studies that just came out that indicate the microbiome might play a significant role in illness severity and recovery. (Also I recognize Mr. T from the letter people! My PK class used that way back in 80s - we had a letter of the week every week)
I have panic attacks, when my bedroom is cold with air moving, I sleep best
I got a weighted blanket back in April and I could never go back. It helps so much! I hope you feel better as soon as possible. 💚
