Hi everyone.

My dad has been dealing with myelofibrosis for a couple of years now. 

He had his stem cell transplant late last year and has been doing relatively okay (bloods/haemoglobin yoyo-ing a bit) and still hasn't regained much weight. 

I'm concerned that his recovery is being stunted by the horrid situation the vulnerable are in at the moment. 

Worried about diminishing mental health caused by consumation of the news (media scaremongering), not leaving the house much (aside for walks etc), his eating situation (occassional bouts of nausea, lack of appetite caused by meds/treatment) and just genuinely getting a bit bored of being at home for 18 months.

I'm based in a different city, double-jabbed and testing regularly for work - so I'm able to live a relatively 'normal' life. 

My parents have been pretty seriously isolating in the country since March 2020 last year and this doesn't look like it'll changing anytime soon. He's double jabbed but because of his treatment/condition, he has no antibodies (therefore no protection) and COVID is rife atm.

Would really appreciate any pointers on ways to support him whilst not being able to visit at the moment. 

We're keeping in touch and still zooming regularly.

Normally I'd be keen to send him a box of beer, or meal kits... urgh!
