The result was death.
My Mama's (mother's younger brother) wife passed away 2 days ago due to Covid. She was the first victim as well as the first fatality in our family due to Covid.
Here's the story. My Mami's (Mama's wife) father is 84 years old. He contracted Covid and is still in critical condition. My Mama and Mami were strictly at home all the time due to the fear of contracting Covid. But when my Mami's father was critical, my Mama had to go to the hospital to enquire about him. He contracted Covid on the way. And from him, his wife (my Mami) contacted Covid as well.
Within a span of 4 days my Mami's health deteriorated, and she was admitted to the ICU. The next day she was put on ventilator support.
The day after that, my mother received a call from my Mama early morning who was wailing, telling my mother that he received a call from the doctor telling him that my Mami's heart rate was faltering. Within 2 hours she was no more.
It's heartbreaking. Their 24 year old son was a complete mamma's boy. Both my Mama and his son were completely dependent on my Mami in their day to day life.
The worst bit is that they live in Delhi, while we live in Guwahati. If they lived here, my mother would have managed everything. But since we are so far apart, my mother can't do anything other than provide lip support.
I never thought in my wildest dreams that I would lose a member of my family due to Covid. Now that it has happened, I'm trying to come to terms with it.
My request to everyone here - Please, please, please get vaccinated as soon as possible. I don't want the same thing happening to any member of my PP family.
