Looks like my great plan for Christmas has been scuppered. We were all set to have mum here, we have a day bed set up for her, she will bring her own chair to sit in, she was looking forward to it, we would have been 8 at the table.
But today she had blood tests and has been told her immune system is weakened, so she has to avoid anyone with colds. Guess what, we have a house with teenagers who are at the end of colds, DH has a stinking cough and I have a sore throat and am feeling decidedly under the weather.
So unless we all make a miraculous recovery in 2 days, we won't be seeing mum & dad until well after Christmas. And they will spend Christmas on their own, just a mile away from us. Which is a total b***d. Sorry. I'm just so upset. It's just so bloody unfair.
