Sorry for your loss. And I agree with you, fuck everyone who are selfish and stupid enough to not get vaccinated...
And no offense, but fuck the Russian authorities too, since they still didn't send all of the required documentation to the EU to officially accept Sputnik V here. I was distrustful, but right now it seems to be working (I'm Hungarian, it's used here).

Actually if everything were there they wouldn't request more - but it seems some tests were not fully completed.

I'm very sorry to hear that Psycho. What a mess this virus has made on the world. Please remember to take care of yourself as well as your Mother.

Really, really sorry to hear it.
My mom's chronically ill and I'm her sole caretaker (and therefore literally the only person who could conceivably pass something like Covid on to her), so I've been strictly adhering to the anti-vax/anti-mask/common sense-averse/empathy-devoid section of the public's "JUST STAY AT HOME FOREVER, THEN" policy of my own free will. I've nearly come to blows with anti-maskers in supermarkets who didn't just refuse to wear masks, but also thought it'd be just fine for them to talk, yell, sing, whatever without any regard for social distancing. And now--since apparently the pandemic is over and the prospect of new variants is whatever?--we have zero mask policies anywhere here at all, including inside the buildings where people are packed like sardines while waiting in line for their vaccinations, 'cuz that makes a ton of sense. Wanting to not get people who are sick, old, or immunocompromised infected is so much more of a hassle than it ought to be. I'm angry and sad and frustrated on your behalf, and, though I realize it's no consolation at all after a horrible event like this happened to you, you're definitely not alone in your disdain for those who can't bear tiny inconveniences in order to keep their fellow human beings alive.

I am nearly in same boat as you, because my mom is older (65yo) and have some illnesses - asthma, high blood pressure, overweight.
I was searching everywhere to find something, that can help... And found just that Vitamin D and Zinc is said to be effective against covid + and also to prevent it.
I highly recommend to take supplement pills for vitamin D (without K2, because K2 changes coagulation of blood) - your doctor can prescribe even better drug of Vitamin D (drops and not pills) and it is also better to consult it with your doctor.
I have tested it, can't say differences, but I got covid and my mom once too and we both had just mild problems.
Btw to check Vitamin D levels from blood is not that cheap and it cost around 55 EUR (in my country) - A lot of people have low levels of Vitamin D (even me)

Condolences!
A lot of people during 2020 and 2021 are scared to get the virus in the hospitals so stop all kind of medical cares they need to recover from illness. Those side deaths or future side deaths are not considered or accounted, but they're a fact.
Courage, cheers!

I'm terribly sorry for your loss.
Even more so as I'm one of my dad's conservators. In recent months he struggled with sudden feeling of faintness, a check showed that he had an AV Block of third grade. After we meddled with his medication (dementia and epileptic seizures), his heart condition improved but now we are worried if the meds are still effective enough. But at least he (and every other adult in our family) is vaccinated against COVID-19!

I'm so sorry to hear that. He had the same birthday as my dad! About the same age, too. Thank you for taking care of your mom at this time. Please take care of yourself as well. A friend of mine lost his mom before Covid and it's still rough on him. Also, I'm glad you were able to speak with your dad before he passed.
The thing that really gets me about Covid is that if everyone (literally everyone) had actually taken it seriously and trusted the science, it would have been maybe four or five months, and then completely done.
Thank you to those who take proper precautions, and to those who additionally get vaccinated.

I lost my mother to Covid. I can understand your grief. Hospital tried everything to save her but in the end, her lungs were 80% effected. I was there for in the hospital and eventually caught covid also. My lungs were 30% damaged and still has not recovered fully even after 8 months. Covid is like a myth until your own family is the sufferer.life feels so empty without my mother.

Fuck you, anti-vaxxers. And fuck you, dear government that de-facto does everything possible to persuade people not to trust Russian vaccines (it looks like Sputnik is an actually effective one, but of course, the official position is that it has no side effects whatsoever, and it leads to speculations; anyone who dares to speak publicly about, say, thrombosis can be legally persecuted for spreading misinformation about covid; needless to say, all this leads to lack of trust and insanely low tempo of vaccination). Basically, fuck everyone who contributes to missing group immunity here in Russia.
Some of you probably remember the moronically happy thread I created just two weeks ago. My father's assumed stroke turned out to be a harmless transient ischemic attack. Well, we are burying him tomorrow. During his five days in the first hospital he managed to catch covid. First symptoms appeared the day after his discharge, and the next day he was in a hospital again. Early in the morning on the 16th of July we received that awful call. He turned 66 five days before that.
I'm kinda anesthetized for now. I'm perfectly calm (except for that anger) and spend most of my time comforting my mother. Basically, I'm in denial so far. I guess, tomorrow I'll start feeling (or maybe not).
Actually, what I'm trying to say is this: take care of your parents and grandparents. Get vaccinated yourself and get them vaccinated (that is, unless they have some contraindications like my dad had, of course). Love them while it's possible, it can all end really abruptly.
Edit: sorry for not answering anyone personally, I read everything and appreciate all you comments, just don't have energy to answer you guys properly. Thank you all for your kind words!
