Lockdown will leave me with a lifetime of trauma over my parents being locked in a care home away from their family. They went into care 1 week before lockdown if they have any feelings left they must feel abandoned and lost, wondering where all their family has gone. It is heartbreaking beyond belief as they are at the end of their journey and this time can never be reclaimed. We need to be able to hug them now before it’s too late.
