“My 7 year old niece, who contracted Covid 4x during the last school year, no longer knows her cousin (my daughter) nor her Granddad.
A few days before her last infection she told my Mom how much she misses Granddad and how he would give her everything!
The week before her last infection she Facetime my daughter and I to recite her Bible verse for the week.
Then she got Covid, started losing things, has problems with word finding, and obvious memory loss.
This happened in May.
My SIL can’t get her in to see a Neurologist until November because all appointments are taken.
