My Apology...

[Zeb_Carter]

Dear Lit Authors...

It has now been three months and I think I might owe some people an apology, and I have settled down after probably the worst tragedy a person could have happen to them. Three months ago my wife passed away. We were at the doctor's office. She wanted to get the vaccine. I tried to talk her out of it, but she was... obstinate. Well, the doctor examined her and thought she could and would be a good candidate for the vaccine considering her age (72) and health. She only suffered a slight case of COPD.

She was injected then they made her wait to see if there were any immediate side effects. She was a little sore at the injection site but said she felt find. As we left the exam room, she grabbed my arm, looked at me, and fell to the floor. She died in my arms. After 48 years with this lovely woman, I was beyond devastated. I yelled for a Doctor. They tried to save her for over forty minutes. But gave up when I told them to stop.

She died of sudden cardiac arrest syndrome a side effect of the vaccine. It was the Pfizer vaccine.

So now you know, why I am vehemently against a vaccine that is purely experimental with no recourse to those who have lost loved ones from the vaccine.

I'm now much better than I have been in the last three months. And I thank you in advance for your condolences, as I will not return to the post, ever.

Sorry, Zeb

I am sorry for your loss. Nothing I can say will help.

In a few months, if I am still alive, we will celebrate 50 years together. After so long I can't imagine losing my wife. She is prepared to lose me, but the other way round? I wouldn't know what to do.

No apologies necessary. My condolences to you and your family.

We also had the Pfizer, and they made us wait for fifteen minutes after the shot to see what sort of side effects might arise. Since I had a previous episode of anaphylaxis from sulfa drugs, they made me wait an additional fifteen minutes while my wife waited outside.

I hear your concerns about the "experimental" nature of the drug, and how there is a possibility of side effects. But I'm still for the vaccinations, since I trust the doctors that tell us that for every life lost due to the vaccine there are hundreds who are saved by it. I have a cousin who is an intern at a hospital, and has been giving us descriptions about what it's like to be on the front lines during the worst of the epidemic, and having to watch people die without having loved ones around, every single day. It's heartbreaking.

Condolences, but this will have to be moved to the political section for me to comment any further.

Political comment should NOT be in this thread.

Just expressions of condolence.

 

[HeyAll]

I hope you get better.

It's not your fault.

Not even time to say goodbye

You don’t need much imagination to be there and see what happened with Zeb and his wife. The suddenness of what occurred and his not being able to do anything. To have to watch for forty minutes as others tried to save her. From his description of what happened not even given the chance to say goodbye.

Similarly to what Ogg has said I’ve been married for 53 years to a wife who has looked after me all that time and cared for me for the last few years despite having health problems herself. If she passes away before me, despite the agony of knowing what was going to inevitably occur, I would want to have time to say goodbye.

We’ve both had 3 vaccinations. 2 AstraZeneca and 1 Pfizer. No adverse reaction whatsoever. In the last year our local medical centre has done almost 100,000 vaccinations. There have been some people who’ve had an adverse reaction such as an aching arm or feeling ill next day. Only one person, who had a Pfizer booster, has had to be taken to hospital because of a reaction. I’m sure if there have been any incidents I’m not aware of they would have been all over social media because that’s life nowadays.

It is a very rare occurrence, but however it is caused, losing a lifetime partner that quickly is a terrible thing to happen.

 

[SimonDoom]

You owe no apology to anyone. My condolences to you for your loss.

 

[MelissaBaby]

Deepest condolences. May her memory be a blessing.

I am sorry for your loss. You have nothing to apologize for. Loosing a lifetime partner is devastating. Please do what ever you need to do to take care of you.

I am so sorry to hear about your loss, Zeb. It's impossible for me to fathom the depth of your pain, but after 48 years of marriage it has to be immense. I know it's not much, but I offer you my sincerest condolences.

And as everybody has said and will say, you have nothing to apologize for.


Ben

 

[jsmiam]

My condolences.

 

[Javahead]

My condolences and utmost sympathy. I can't think of anything else to say.

 

[jehoram]

My apologies to any who thought that my remarks were intended to be political. They weren't.

I have lost some dear friends recently, and I expect to lose another before the year is out. We must all look to each other to help heal our griefs. I hope that the Christmas season will be one way of producing that healing. Peace to all.

 

[LAHomedog]

I'm very sorry to read of your tragic loss. May her memory always be a blessing to you.

I don't know, and might never know what that's like, but that sucks, bruh. Keep living.
