Pretoria - Having previously conquered pneumonia and a hip operation following a bad fall, “super granny” Dawn Ivings has survived Covid-19.She has now been reunited with her friends at her Krugersdorp retirement home.
Her daughter Diane Ivings said she suspected that her mother had contracted Covid-19 the week before she took ill. “She had a terrible night and by Tuesday morning we arranged for her to be taken by ambulance to Pinehaven Netcare Hospital.” This enabled her to keep in touch with her children on most days via her cellphone, as they were not allowed to visit her.“For the first week her infection markers were worryingly high and her oxygen levels dropped to 88%. But then things slowly started improving She was re-tested for Covid-19 and tested negative.”
