Hi there. I received a text this morning from NHS saying that I could open a window but couldn't go outside my property. It also said I couldn't take my rubbish out. I have already been in the house for 3 weeks but am I to understand that I can't even go on my garden now? Have you or do you know of anyone else who has had this text. I am now feeling as if I am in prison?

I'm not allowed out at all as I have received 3 letters now I have to stay in for 12 weeks as I'm on the critical list as I am fighting breast cancer I am in remission at the moment but I still have a long time to go before I get the absolute all clear, plus I have lymphoedema and emphysema and was told that I could easily catch it but having no immunity I would find it very difficult to fight it ,so I am taking there advice and staying in I do have the door open so I can at least get some air ,I am finding my anxiety PTSD depression getting worse but I do have my husband to help me so that is a God send, I do have loads of other illnesses, recently we had our 19 th anniversary and I did find that hard as we usually celebrate that with the family, plus this  week I lost my budgie and that really devastated me ,and in June1st   it will be my 66th  birthday and it doesnt look as though I will be able to celebrate that I have already cancelled my holiday, and I have had to cancel my charity stall that I was going to do ,so it isn't doing any good for me it's just everything then on top of that my pip is going to stop in June also so I had to send another claim form it has been one disappointment after another I just hope they give it back as last time I lost if for two years i went out without nothing it easnt until i got my hospice and my hearing people that i got it back to the henhanced rate but i still had to go to court to get it so so far this year hasn't been very good to me its been one thing after another ,roll on when we can all get back to normal well that's my story of my isolation take care every one Happy Easter to you all love Tiger xxx

 

God bless you all in cerenity xxx
