live in a retirement community by herself. She doesn't drive so we order her groceries ever week, sometimes 2 and pickup and bring to her house. We are an hour drive away and have been doing this for about 5 years. We all have our shots and boosters (2). She has all kinds of age related issues and seemingly constant doctor visits.
We are both 72 so not young ourselves and beginning to feel it. I have been diagnosed with two different kinds of cancer and taken treatment and (knock on wood) have been NED (no evidence of disease) for 3 and 5 years so thankful.
Although we know she could go any day it seems like she might outlive us.....we have been very diligent trying to not cause any disease but her family (sister and her family) are constantly visiting (which we appreciate) most have already had COVID and although they finally got their vaccine they have the common attitude of living their life without restriction (which is prevalent in Texas) family get togethers, etc. and it is frustrating.
I can only say that I understand your situation - good luck. There is really only so much you can do and your concern is evidence you are doing your best.
That is my rant.....
