Iâve been here almost four years.
0:14
And why do I live in Mexico? My mother passed away from blood cancer in November 2016. And so before that I quit my whole life to take care of my mother and help my family. And so since I quit my whole life, I didnât have anything left. And so I decided to explore

Donât ask me why I lived on the border twice and had never said Step, step foot in Mexico, because you always hear about how dangerous it is, suddenly, Iâm gonna go check it out anyways, because thatâs the kind of person I am.

Um,
2:13
so Saturday, if you have been paying attention to whatâs been going on with me, my allergies and my asthma have been kicking my ass
2:21
and so
2:25
Saturday I felt like someone was sitting on my chest.
2:29
It was real tight in there.
2:34
Real

2:35
like pressure. And so I decided to go to emergency room around 10 oâclock or so that night and they gave me a shot in my ass of steroids. And after that I felt like a whole new ass person about dancing around and stuff.
2:55
And so they took an X ray.
2:57
They told me that I shouldnât have been able to breathe because I could breathe just fine. Itâs just, it was tight in there. And it was like You shouldnât have been able to breathe maâam. Your chest is but and so I need to go see a pulmonologist but it seems like all the pulmonologist are booked up Iâm just going to see if I can drop in right quick on one of these people, maybe two or three cuz like thereâs no appointments. Iâve been calling around before I leave this house then buffalo my asthma pump and taking my allergy pills religiously. They gave me a prescription for another allergy medicine. And so that that might work better but I got all these pills that I bought. So Iâm gonna go through those first and then Iâll switch to see if itâs if itâs better, sheâs she claims that these are supposed to be so much better. So to give you the scoop on what I saw in the hospital, the hospital was dead. There was nobody in there which is a good thing considering that you know, all over the world. Theyâre saying that hospitals are overflowing. So at least in that hospital is not bad. I canât say cuz thatâs a private hospital. I cannot say what has been going on in the public hospitals here. And so I saw one man whoâs laid up on the couch. I think he was waiting for somebody else because I donât think theyâre allowing people to go back with their family members, which is sad. He had a mask on he was asleep, laid out on the couch.

4:26
And
4:27
there was another woman in there. She was hysterical. I donât know why she was hysterical because it kept telling me to hurry up and leave. I was I was at the end I was coming out and pain.
4:39
So my bill was about $100 or so.
4:43
The freaking gown they gave me was was expensive. Iâm like I say for now. But yeah, hundred dollars in comparison to the United States. My bill will probably be at least $2,000 so Iâm not even complaining. I do have my secondary insurance size. submitted that to them and I should get a reimbursement in four to six weeks because I take forever in a day, but I will be reimbursed hopefully. So yeah, that was my night on Saturday and yeah sorry nights easier like really packed inside the hospital so there was no one in there before that though, Mexico does not want people go into the hospital if youâre suspected to have Corona virus so I think I got the virus, although I guess people are theyâre claiming and walking around, youâre asymptomatic. So I called the phone number. And they picked up really quickly. They spoke English I think they also speak French for because thereâs a lot of Haitians a lot of Canadians here. So you know the dudeâs rattling off you know, the my feelings certain kind of way. Iâm like, Nah, just my chest. My ad was banned. Heâs like, Okay, well weâre not gonna say anyone out because we donât think you have it. Same thing in the hospital didnât get tested for the wellner

So yeah,
6:14
yeah, I guess Mexicoâs Mexicoâs on top of it to a certain extent, I suppose. can sleep last night like my throat? My throat was like, I guess thatâs another symptom of my allergies. It just felt dry. And so if you look online, they have like a comparison chart between sometimes a word Rona and allergies. And like all the symptoms of allergies, I have none of the symptoms of Corona So yeah, I was just killing me, which is sad because like, I never had allergies like this, ever, ever, ever, ever in life.

did not kill me last year when I lived here. So I donât know whatâs going On this year
7:03
between the trees and shit
7:07
so thatâs that Iâm trying to think anything else about me going to the hospital and the coronavirus hotline yeah I was in and out within less than an hour I didnât spend much time in the hospital they got me in and out gave me my shot my ass paid to the X ray. Sheâs like yeah, you should swap that you need to go see pulmonologist get this under control. Because if you donât like you know the end.

7:40
Um,
7:41
so yeah, I guess Iâll be honest, still away, which I Iâve been trying not to be on these allergy pills in a steroid. Because itâs an immunosuppressant. Itâs gonna suppress my immune system, which means that Iâm just gonna have to sit in the house for sure for sure. And not leave because Iâm susceptible to catch anything like that. point that even just the Roman like the flu strap anything so whatever is floating around in the air so I havenât really been outside much I did go out to emergency room before that I hadnât been out since like Tuesday I think so they really been going outside Iâm prepared for this because some outside person really anyways itâs in house.

8:34
Iâm in the house,
8:36
or thereâs some kind of special event that I would like to go to that I find out about. Iâm in the house. So the thing is, I know the ordinary for me, Iâm update on Mexico. When the case is here for me, let me pull up my numbers give you all the accurate stuff. So on Friday see
9:00
Friday.
9:02
Friday, there was 848 confirmed cases today weâre up to 993 confirmed cases. So itâs going about well, at one point, it was like 100 hundred a day. So I guess it was a good thing that didnât go up 100 a day over the weekend. There were no deaths over the weekend. So thatâs also good thing. But the case is going up slowly but surely. Things are closed down here. Iâm still able to get deliveries. So you know, but I donât know if I talked about it on my last video, the thing you know about a lot of these countries and why they canât just shut down and I donât know if youâve been paying attention to whatâs going on in

They just shut the shit down overnight. And so people were stranded everywhere and itâs just sick and fad. Thereâs people that had to walk 200 kilometers and theyâd like literally died because they walked so far and they couldnât get out. They couldnât, you know, get back to home. Countries canât just shut down. This is This includes America, this includes America because people forget that people that drive Uber and Lyft and, you know, do your deliveries and stuff, theyâre paid
10:15
daily.
10:16
Theyâre paid daily, they donât get, you know, they donât get paid every week. They donât get paid every two weeks. They donât have a steady paycheck. Theyâre day laborers. And so, you know, thatâs what runs a lot of peopleâs lives being day laborers. And so Mexico doesnât want to shut down because a lot of people are day laborers, for example, my housekeeper you know, she doesnât work for me, she donât get paid. You know, and she asked me to she was like, yo, so like, whatâs going on? Youâre gonna fire me, you know, with this stuff going on. Or youâre gonna keep me around. I told Iâm gonna keep around as long as possible because I know you know, your day labor and you canât just thereâs no other income coming in, you know, so So yeah, I have written here with a mask on gloves and some sunglasses or something. And, you know, to clean my apartment. But thatâs, thatâs the reality of a lot of peopleâs lives on this earth. They are day laborers. And you know, if you shut something down, how are they going to get money to pay their rent to pay their bills? And how are they going to get money to eat? So, you know, these governments need to set up something to drop off food at the minimum at the minimum, and I havenât heard

11:33
Any country. So
11:36
this is why you canât just shut down countries, you know?
11:41
And

so thatâs that on that topic.

11:59
night. Like 10 oâclock at night
12:00
but I think restaurants they open to like one

12:46
itâs been very stressful.
12:49
My anxiety is through the roof. You know, allergy medicine, asthma can help my my symptoms or my chest. Any help my anxiety, man. These panic attacks that I have. So Iâve been trying to, you know, be tanky Hello, Frankie Hello, as I say in Spanish and try to take it easy. Try to take it easy. Iâve been doing a ton of focus on work because I hadnât been focusing on work for a couple of weeks now. You know, because when stuff popped off like I was just, I was just in shock. Again, Intel from people all over the country here in Mexico and in the states and is pretty bad in the States. One of my peeps who lives in New York, he told me that he knew someone and these people are young, but a lot of these people are having an underlying condition. You know, thatâs Iâm so scared for myself because I have asthma. And itâs been activated this year. Like Iâve never had asthma like this before in my life, or allergies, for that matter. And so the woman he said it was around our age. Iâm 33

she was sick on Friday. And she was no more on Monday. And so heâs telling me that one of the last symptoms that people have is a metallic taste in their mouth, I guess, you know, thatâs the blood coming up through their chest. Because theyâre saying this in mind disease, basically, youâre bleeding them inside your lungs, so
14:27
and heâs telling me a lot of young people are dying,
14:29
but like I said, they have underlying conditions.
14:33
And the people are working for the government, like the bus, public transportation, in corrections, which is the prisons in the jails. So they havenât been traveling, no international traveling. So I donât I want to say itâs airborne. You know what Iâm saying? So thatâs another reason why Iâm in the house, but I guess if Iâm turning on my AC, itâs coming inside. Anyway, right from opening up. My Windows is coming going inside anyway, so Iâm very weary of that.

So yeah, Shadow wear mask, wash your hands stay on inside as much as possible but I guess if itâs airborne
15:18
you know how right
15:21
a lot of people that have been dying have been older people of course with a course no mind conditions. I got Intel from my sister. I donât even know if I should say it because Iâm pretty sure itâll be on the news soon, but I donât want to get in trouble with HIPAA. But is getting serious in Houston. Sheâs telling me that sheâs getting a lot of more cases, and theyâre dying. So I guess Houston will be another hot spot at this point. Because right now the hot spots are in California in New York.

People keep going out having parties. Oh my gosh, my craziest damn family this is why donât fool with them because theyâre freaking degenerates. They had a sleepover party, so I suspect a couple of them will probably have it. But hey, God protects fools. So I donât know. He surely protects fools. The way they talk about it, they donât they donât have no symptoms. But maâam, sir, maâam, sir. I mean, you have to catch it in order to have symptoms of youâre all out and about and youâre around people that got the shit. Like, thatâs how you catch it. So I donât know what to think of people. I mean, people at the beach party and and stuff. I have no idea. So, again, I want to keep it short, sweet and simple. Not going rambling. Thatâs thatâs the tea that I have the info The Intel that I have I do another video when I get more information or something goes on with me.
