Yep that was me. I had my Grandfather in a ward opposite and we were only allowed 1 visitor. My friend who was a nurse (quit after the BS of covid) said it was a circus with all them in and out.And I'm fairly certain that I read on here that when he was in his final days in hospital, they were being allowed in to visit him.
I can't even imagine how difficult it was for those who had to say their goodbyes through windows or screens, instead of being able to hold their loved one's hands.
If they got special treatment because of being 'the family of Captain Sir Tom' that is appalling.
Restrictions were in place to protect everyone as much as possible, why would they get a free pass to do as they pleased! Especially after bringing him to Barbados which was the height of lunacy for a man of his age, never mind the times that we were all living through.![]()
PALS didn't give a flying F either saying they'd had "alot of positive comments about them caring for him". Well I know 4 families worth who bloody didn't when we couldn't see our relatives who then died alone
