Chris had been coming to see Dad a day here and a couple of days there every month since her health situation and Covid rules had improved. It was not easy for her juggling visiting Dad and her terminally sick father-in-law.  However, Chris and her husband decided to get some condensed quality time in with her Dad only to be scuppered ...
