Requesting prayers for my son in emergency room with Covid. [View all]

He's unvaccinated, of course, despite my and his sister's entreaties.
I've spoken with his ER, nurse, who tells me he is stable.
He's had Covid for 8-9 days, but tried to keep it to himself and get well on his own.
Has gone down the last few days, today the worst apparently.

I'm very angry with him, but also scared for him.
Please, God, spare my boy, now a middle-aged but not always reasonable man.
Lord, have mercy.
