I started dating a woman once and she was a widow. I was kind of shocked a woman in her 20's was already a widow and she finally got around to telling me what happened. Very similar. Keep in mind this was some 15 years before COVID. Husband was pretty healthy. Nothing in his family history. Most of his family had died of natural causes. One day got really sick. Was bedridden for a few days. Fever, body aches, coughing. Third day they go into urgent care. Doctors think its just a bad case of the flu since it was late October. They give him some antiviral stuff and told him to take it easy and let it run its course. Two days later he got up and said he felt a little better. Spent 45 mins on the treadmill and afterwards said he was feeling great. The next day he got up and was pale AF, and she said when he was talking to her, she could smell the sepsis on his breathe. Called 911 and they took him to the ER. Took an xray and saw the sepsis had spread, and it was terminal. She spent the next 36 hours watching him slowly die. She said had they done a chest x-ray the first time he came in, they probably could've had a chance to save him. The way health care is now, doctors make you jump through all the hoops before they're willing to order more extensive tests and bloodwork. Just a sad story all the way around but I'm not surprised by your similar story either.
