I am 2hrs away from my uncle and godfather living in a care home. I haven’t been able to visit him since we went into lockdown, he recently had his 91st birthday and the staff sent us some photo of them giving him his presents. It was heart breaking to see how frail he has become, I am sure he doesn’t understand why we don’t visit, so sad.
