Oh I am so sorry you finally got covid especially cause it sounds like you had a terrible case. I hope that you start feeling better very soon!

And now your GF will get extra birthday celebrations later, so that is good!

But I absolutely feel you: I ended up with covid for my best friend's moving away party. She was moving to England, it was her going away party, and I couldn't go. I was livid! At least I had a relatively mild case! It still sucked, though.
