I’m so upset

All my family had Covid 3 weeks ago but me and now my daughter has gone into labour and I was supposed to look after my granddaughter and be present at the home birth. I’m home alone in tears feeling so sorry for myself. I missed her graduation as I had a PE so really wanted to be there for her now

Ah, Covid’s a bugger, isn’t it? So sorry that your plans have been scuppered, Grannyflower, but this too will pass. My DGS6 was born two weeks into our first lockdown in 2020. I couldn’t help out or cuddle him or my DD for months and our first meeting was us squinting at each other across a busy road, him carried by his mum in a car seat. We’re great mates now and DH and I look after him every week. All the worry and disappointment’s in the distant past and best forgotten. Just take care of yourself now, get well and look forward to meeting your little darling very soon. thanks

Won't be long before you can see and hold your new grandson. We cannot predict when illness strikes. Take care of yourself.xx

Hope you all recover very soon and I pray that you unite with your grandchild and fam very soon!
