"If you think COVID is a joke, this is our sweet G man in an ambulance today after I called 911 because he was lethargic, skin was gray, lips were purple, and had a 103.5 temperature," Devon Mostert wrote. "I'm crying even typing this ... this is all SO SCARY."
Thankfully for the Mostert family, Gunnar is back home and is recovering from the virus.

"I could say a lot, but I'm going to keep this short because my family gets 100% of my time right now," Mostert wrote, via TMZ Sports. "Take COVID seriously! It's not a joke!!"
