+++update+++
I lost my sister last week, sadly... it was sudden and unexpected and her death has come as quite a shock.
Today, I have received a text and email from my GP and hospital asking me for my own health and safety, and to save burden to an already crippled NHS system, so self-isolate for 12 weeks, in order that I may not catch this virus that is causing untold misery to people all around the world.
A few days ago, we received news that my mum's dementia is worsening and is causing certain organs in her body to fail - the doctors have said that she has probably got less than a month to survive - her carehome is in lockdown, so I can't visit her and now I've been advised that I cannot leave my home anyway for at least another 3 months.
Because of all this, I will probably miss my sister's funeral, I won't be able to be there when my own mother dies and more than likely will have to miss her funeral as well...
I'm saying all this not for sympathy...
I just want people to try and be kind to each other - life is precious, and so are the people that live them... show each other respect, not only here, but in real life too.
Peace and love,
