Name changed.
I really do get that in reality no one trumps anyone but in this case someone suffers either way. In the case of what to do for Xmas. Who's mental health trumps the other?

Parent 70s. alone most of the time should be coming for Xmas. MH issues not reported but would be surprised if not there due to being alone. Without me- will be totally alone for xmas . Worse due to t3 restrictions.

Me, single parent, full time full on work and I'm in bad episode of depression, not coping and suicidal. Christmas coming is a nightmare and having to host the above person is making me feel much worse for many reasons
So who do I prioritise ?
Cancel the visit and try to 'relax' over Xmas
Or continue with the plan and likely push me further into crisis.
The kids want the guest to come so they miss a bit too if I cancel visit.
No other help/ people. Got professional support etc but I improve the episode in a week.
