My grandma has recently lost her husband my grandad (not due to covid). He died not long before lockdown but thankfully was able to have a normal funeral at the time. They were married for 60 years. She’s had to grieve mainly alone. I haven’t seen her for 6 weeks. I miss her dearly. She always seems so sad when I ring her and I’m tears.
Now don’t slam me. I am aware that I cannot visit her, I wouldn’t want to put her at risk. I’ve only been out 3 times since lockdown but my partner is working and could bring it home. I don’t intend to go into her house.
Thankfully she has her children very close. Although they aren’t going in her house. My Mum does her shopping, chat through the window, my uncles been doing gardening whilst she watches from the window so she isn’t completely alone.
She lives 10 miles away. I just want to see her.
Tomorrow I have to do a food shop. Rather than going to the shop I normally go to 7 miles from me I may go to the shop near my grandmothers and go sit in her garden and chat through the window. Or we could sit at distance in the garden? She has a large garden.
Would this be totally wrong? If it is I won’t go.
Things have been hard. Grieving for my grandad, having my two children home has been testing - they both have additional needs, my partner still working. I’m not overly close to my mum. I feel like I need to talk to my grandma. She is the best person to speak to. I would leave my children at home with oh before he goes to work, do some shopping and visit her.
Also pretty sure we all had it mildly beginning of April. DS had a fever and very lethargic. Me and oh had coughs and feeing meh (we never cough usually) but we are fine now.
