Sick Risk

[Racheal7Baca9]

My sister and I had plans today, but she cancelled because she was sick, no big deal. Tonight she asked if I was coming over tomorrow to do her nails, I told her not if she was sick. I am not worried about myself, the chances of her having COVID-19 are very slim, but I live with my mother who is on oxygen, has COPD, and many other risk factors. Her nails are not worth our mothers life. She reminded me that I had promised to help her with her nails and told me she would never break a promise.
Am I in the wrong? Am I being overly cautious?

protect your mum at all costs, nails can wait...

[fiction-factory]

Say you'd have done them today if she hadn't cancelled. I can understand you not going. Suggest next week

[Smowball]

You’re completely in the right xx

[waterboatman]

You are correct. Your sister is being very selfish.

[rowanwitch]

Trying to manipulate you as well, not nice at all

[Old_Geezer]

I think postponing is fair enough. (Especially in the present circumstances.) Her getting sick changes the conditions for any promise. Was rather unfair of her to bring that up.

[diddlydo]

You are absolutely right.

[Spicerack]

Offer to light a candle for her.

Common sense........... protect the vulnerable, it’s a no brainier really .

Maybe shes not as sick as she said she was yesterday! That'll teach her.

Stay away for at least 7 days and tell her its in accordance with government guidelines.

[roopower]

Can only agree with everyone else. Even if she hasn't got the virus , she could have something else you could catch and pass on to your mother. Its not worth the risk. Her nails can wait.

[ummmm]

I think 7 days is an under estimate. I've been poorly and it lasted nearly 2 weeks.

[ladybirder]

She is being very selfish. No, you are not being over cautious, you are right.

[tiggerblue10]

Of course you are right. Definitely not worth putting your mother at risk.

[Peter Pedant]

no I think you stick your feet down and say
I wont

[EDDIE51]

No, her nails can wait ! Your Mother comes first !

Nails are not important at all in my opiniom!

[Apc2604]

Hope you feel better soon ummmm. I have had sore throat, sinus and other problems since being ill with a virus since early January. I feel really run down, depressed and really vulnerable.

[ummmm]

I feel much today. I didn't realise how poorly I was until my energy returned.

[Apc2604]

Good. X
