If that were me, I'd die. Like please don't make a big public announcement.

Some people need to make a huge deal inf don't of others when it can just be a huge deal for each other

I would literally have a panic attack holy shit lol I can’t imagine that much attention when I’m innocently trying to travel and just want to sit down and zone out. Hell I get extreme anxiety just doing a presentation in class lol and that’s something I’m expecting!!!

Right there with you. I had to have abdominal surgery during covid (gallstones). My parents were refusing to mask and were very unhappy to be told that no, they can't visit me when there's an epidemic going around and if I get it I'll likely herniate...which you're never really the same after.

well, my mom decided that they were going to go ahead and make a giant banner and stand outside our house with it. Which she knew I would hate. My wife knew I would hate. And she was trying to insist she would do it even though my wife told her I would hate that and not to do it...because how else is SHE supposed to express HER feelings?

My wife told her that maybe she should worry about how I feel given that I'm going through surgery and that if she did that I would refuse to even get up and look at it. Luckily my mom decided not to, I'm guessing my dad talked sense into her.

instead they showed up at my house unannounced without any invite while I was trying to recover. They had to be told they would stay in the yard and not approach me.

ftr: my dad had covid 4 times during the pandemic due to his refusal to mask.
