• Had a chat with my Mum and Dad today. They're cancelling most of their plans and lying low for a while with no visitors.

    They're in their mid 70s. Dad is in good health. My Mum has Alzheimers and is due to have fairly major bowel surgery in the next week or so. Other than the surgery Mum is in good physical health. Makes total sense for her to be careful in the run up to her surgery. I'm worried for her.

  • Ditto. (Though apart from alzheimers).

    They seem to be sensibly mostly self isolating thankfully (as otherwise mostly are a bit daily mail climate denying tories). My brothers all phoning in rotation so keeping good check on them.

  • Sounds like they're going about things in the most prudent way possible. Best wishes to your mum.

  • Yes, pretty bad, my parents are in their late eighties, and I'm keeping away because I have a 'tickle' in the back of my throat (But no temperature). In other news it seems that the government is now being forced to shoot elephants to assuage the mob :(
