Isolation prior to op

3 replies

My DH is due some major surgery at the end of September and has been told to isolate for 14 days before hand, no issues there. I work in a school, and we have two children at school (primary and secondary), last time (he's had several ops during lockdown) he was told we didn't need to isolate, just him. We are all a bit worried about bringing it back and infecting him (house is not big enough for him to be away from us). Considering sending him to his parents to isolate as they don't go out.

Anyone have any thoughts? Going round in circles

If he can go to his parents then I think I’d do that. Anything that reduces the risk!

That's where we are heading I think, it's a bugger as it leaves me managing back to work, back to school (one of whom has autism so start of term is not an easy ride). I'll just get on and stop moaning! Doesn't help that he had an op cancelled early in the year as they discovered he was covid positive at pre op (he has has that op since).

I think the pressure is getting to us all!

Hospital confirmed it needs to be whole house, that's me flying solo for the start of term then...pass the wine!
