I’ve NC for this as most of it’s quite outing.
DH has one of the conditions listed on the severe list (AKA the stay in the house for 12 weeks list). He’s also self employed as a tradesman.
He’s absolutely refusing to stop working right now, even though we’ve been to hospital with him in the past for a cold - he ended up on oxygen for two days!
He’s shown me his routine which involves countless rubber gloves and hand sanitizer. He’s also asking all of his customers to stay away from him while he does his job. Some jobs he’s going to do at night when there’s no one there (industrial stuff) and others he’s just asked the customers to be out of the house.
I’m just not sure if it’s enough?! Surely he should just stay at home. I’m so worried about him but he won’t listen as he swears he’s being super careful. I understand that he’s stressed that he’d only get £94 a week if he does have to take the time off but we can cover mortgage/bills for a while on just my wages - it would be tight but we could do it.
Am I being unreasonable? YABU he sounds like he’s being smart, let him work. YANBU he shouldn’t be going out.
