My grandad has recently been diagnosed and I can't visit hi

My grandad has recently been diagnosed with a type of blood cancer and I have just found out, we aren't able to go visit him in hospital where he is staying, I'm not sure for how long, and they don't know yet how severe it is at the moment until they do some tests soon. I just dont know how to be coping I don't feel like doing anything at all, I dont know what to do with myself anymore I just wanna go visit him but I can't because only one dedicated person can because of covid-19 reasons :/ 

  • Hi KekezzaJade,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. I'm very sorry to hear of the situation with your grandad. I know it's incredibly tough and cruel to have these restrictions.

    Hopefully you will be able to visit him before too long, and I also hope that you're able to find out more about what's going on soon.

    In the meantime, try to focus on doing what you need to do in the days, whether that includes work or activities that you enjoy, and trying to keep a bit of a routine going.

    Wishing you all the best,

    Ben
