My best friend has died and her funeral is later this week. The lockdown situation seems to be allowing funerals to go ahead but still some confusion over whether for immediate family only. Also, it means a round trip of approx 400 miles by public transport (mainly train) as I can't drive. This is doable in a day and obviously staying overnight is out of the question now anyway.
DH is furious that I am even considering going and calling me selfish, stupid and ridiculous.
She was my closest and oldest friend, I have known her since we were in nursery together and we were like sisters. I am so devastated that she has gone and I can't fathom not being able to go to her funeral. I am adamant that I will try to get there but this is causing a bitter argument with DH and I am starting to doubt my judgement as everything seems so surreal right now.
It may be that the rules dictate that I am not allowed to attend as restricted to immediate family only or the journey not considered essential but am I being unreasonable to actually consider going? Would it be selfish and stupid? Like I say, I am struggling to process the situation and the death and maybe my DH is right.
