Cost me my job

I had a severe case of COVID-19 that I caught at my office that included pneumonia and a lower intestinal infection, along with a trip to the ER of my local hospital. At the ER I received breathing treatments and two strong antibiotics for the pneumonia and intestinal infection. This was in addition to severe fatigue, body aches and breathing issues. I was in bed for a little over two weeks and when I got back to the office, I was terminated for not being available during the illness.
