Husband just though cancer treatment. Declared cancer free only 1 month ago. Although he has to be tested every 3 months for foreseeable. Totally stressed.
Wonderful friends of 20 years offering us indefinite stay with them in their large country home. They are self isolated 7 days. We are self isolated 10 days.
It’s an hour from our place in central London, l am getting so anxious about my husband and getting shopping. They have acres and acres. Not far from major shopping towns in the county but isolated.
What do we need to consider. What is your advice. Leaving early tomorrow. Should we ?

I think it’s easy to overestimate how nice it would be to share a lock down with another family in someone else’s house.

Because she's lived there before and there's enough space to avoid the other couple, there's acres of private land to walk in, the hospital is a commutable distance, they're getting there by car so won't put others at risk in the process of getting there and at the moment it's likely that no one in the equation has it. It's the most comfortable way for a very vulnerable man to pass the lockdown period and I do think fresh air and sunshine has an excellent effect on the body in general. I also think that, given the option, most of the people on here being sanctimonious about it would jump at the chance and are probably jealous it's not being afforded to them. My mother in law decamped to her boyfriend the morning after lockdown was announced because she lives on her own and tbh I can't blame her.

I don’t know about others but no I wouldn’t jump at the chance. Home is much better than elsewhere. We have a garden though, don’t know about op.

I presumed Marsha, perhaps wrongly of course, that with them living in central London they were unlikely to have a private garden. Obviously you personally may not jump at the chance, but from what I surmise of OP's situation, if I were her, I would.

Yes maybe not
