My phone’s screen lit up as I was having lunch with my family.

“Hey, man. My mom was just admitted into hospital”

I felt like my body froze. She’s not any regular person. Her father’s dead, and her mother is her only relative she actually trusts. She’s 20, and she lives in Metepec, a city nearby.

I tried calling her but she wouldn’t pick up. She sent me a tearful voice note.

“I... I don’t know what to do. She’s been admitted for pneumonia, and... and this hospital does have respirators. But... I can’t stay here, they’ll close at night and my mother, she left her car in a parking lot nearby and... I don’t know how to drive, I don’t know how to get home.”

I thought about going to her and trying to help. Shit, I know I can’t figure out the car stuff (maybe), but I could possibly take her home. Then I looked at my family, and I realized I was too chickenshit to do it.

Now I don’t know who helped her if anyone. I just know I failed a friend, and she might be scarred for it.

Fuck this. I just wanted to throw it out somewhere. I’m sorry.

It sounds awful but unless you’ve appropriate masks, etc... It’s putting you and your family’s lives at risk. Especially as her mother has pneumonia, she has an elevated risk of being so to. Yes you could of gone, then isolated yourself from your family for a while, but your family need you with them, knowing your safe and well.

I totally understand how you feel, I really do.

I know it's easier said than done, but try not to think about it. Hopefully she got a taxi or something and is safe and well.

It’s the calculation I made. Blood is thicker than water in this case.

If the city is nearby, can you get a ride there and then drive her home?

I feel like I'm missing some critical details here...

I live with five other people, and I think it’s likely her mother has COVID-19, and she might have it too. I can’t risk it, I could’ve fixed it if I was willing to.

I didn’t. It’s too late now anyway.

There are fairly effective methods to mitigate any transmission but as you said, if you wanted to fix things you could have.

Sorry, what was the point of this post?

It’s that but also if you don’t have the equipment to protect her or yourself, you taking a massive risk.

You need to look after you so you can look after your family.

You did the right thing.
