I have been staying in a hotel away from the husband and kids.I'm hoping with the weather getting better we can do outdoor visits in the yeard.

Yes, our friend is staying in our guest house out back because he's an ER doctor. His wife is home with the kids. We have kids as well but the guest house has a laundry room and its own parking garage and there is no need for us to go anywhere near it, so we don't.

DP---I hear you! We got ourselves weighted blankets just to help with the "feeling of loneliness". This is so hard and few people get us frontline families. This isn't a joke (I've heard some friends make jokes about how my husband is getting a sweet end of the deal by not having to take care of the kids and he has the "ultimate man cave". I am lonely as hell.

Wow, I'm sorry PP. People are so clueless. I appreciate the sacrifices you and your family are making. I hope your husband can come home for good soon.

Yes and we are struggling. Kids miss their dad and it is utter grief.
