The plan:
Me taking extreme precautions to get to my parents safely and infection free, for all our benefit. Me having prepped them beforehand to avoid contact with others for at least 48 hours before I get there.
What I predict will happen:
My parents welcoming me to their home after my 28 hour travel ordeal, with my cousins, aunts and uncles, their families, their friends, the neighbours, all present, all unmasked, some of them visibly sick, all of them having been there for a few hours before hand, all the windows closed in a stuffy room. But they all washed their hands so it’s fine. My parents being confused at how fucking furious I am that they literally did nothing that I begged them to do. The bare fucking minimum to keep their first born safe, after having gone through medical hell for 6 years and not wishing to become even sicker.

these pre-travel emotional spirals are very familiar territory… very relatable shit. thankfully time marches on, and whatever will happen will happen, and eventually it will become the past, no matter how it turns out. But you'll have prepared 1000%, and you'll know you did your best. We're all cheering for you!!
