I have one surviving parent who Iives alone, is 80 and who has mobility issues (arthritis), type 2 diabetes (controlled) and takes warfarin for a heart condition.
Where in live the rules allow me to form a support bubble with them but I have not done so as yet as am still too worried to meet them indoors. Over the summer we visited each other gardens or met at other outdoor locations and kept a social distance at all times. I have childen of primary school age. They have not touched my parent since March. We all live in two areas with high covid infection rates.
Looking ahead to the long, dark and for my parent, lonely, winter days, what would you do? Bubble with them and meet indoors while social distancing or not take the risk, only meet outdoors and resign yourself to the fact this means you'll hardly ever see them?
