It feels like a hopeless situation right now, for those with Loved Ones in Care and those who desperately need assistance and probably Care. I think everyone who has a LO in Care will have experienced the Guilt that goes with it. It’s never ever an easy decision and usually only comes about because we are unable to provide what is required in our own Homes. I know my Mum in Care is provided for in terms of 24 hour care, safety, stimulation and company from the friends she has there and the numerous carers, we could not give that to her at Home, however I also know she feels locked in like a prisoner, not able to go out for walks and we are not able to go and see her, its horrendous for us all and deeply upsetting. We have considered taking her out but realise that will give her 2 of the things she is without now, walks and family, but we would not be able to meet the other things I have mentioned. What we all have to hope for is this rapid testing happens in every Care Home soon and that we are allowed once more to be with our Loved ones. Stay strong, there is an Army of people campaigning and shouting out for the same things we want... lets hope its soon x
