mommymarine2003 (175 posts)https://www.democraticunderground.com/100215810635My daughter-in-law and my baby granddaughter have COVID.My son called a little bit ago and told us that his wife and baby, age 19 months, have COVID. My son is vaccinated, but his wife comes from an Evangelical family and refused to get vaccinated. We were going to babysit our granddaughter yesterday, but they both weren't feeling well, so everyone in my home was not exposed, thank goodness. My daughter-in-law flew to Arizona 10 days ago for a bachelorette party. They wanted to go to a place that did not require you to wear a mask. We live in Oregon where we have both indoor and outdoor mask mandates right now.I am trying not to feel anger towards my daughter-in-law, but it is hard. It is so selfish that she exposed her child to this. My niece who lives in Washington State just recovered from COVID. She is vaccinated but still got the virus. She is no longer positive but is suffering from extreme fatigue.I am starting to develop a strong resentment of anti-vaxxers.

mommymarine2003 (175 posts) 9. To make matters worse, she attended her grandfather's funeral this past SaturdayThere were 150 people at the funeral. I imagine very few people were wearing masks. The baby was in the nursery, so all the other babies and toddlers were exposed. What a nightmare.
mommymarine2003 (175 posts) 13. I am very worried.My sister had COVID in March/April of 2020. She was very sick. She is a senior citizen and not a 29-year-old or 1-year-old, but I know that the Delta variant is hitting the younger age groups pretty hard; so this really scares me.
Star Member RicROC (781 posts) 14. I wish your innocent granddaughter recovers.I wish your astute son is able to take proper care of his daughterYour daughter in law is a domestic terrorist and should be in jail because of her disregard for the health of her daughter and anyone else she endangered.

Rabrrrrrr (58,065 posts) 24. Holy crow, what a dilemma to be in. A son you likely love, a DIL who's a life-hating terrorist, and a granddaughter who is sick because of the negligence of the DIL - and yet, your son surely loves her, so you can't quite just treat her like she deserves...uffda.I feel for you, and I can only say that I hope they all get through Covid just fine and that your DIL will eventually realize that for all the protestations of the Evangelicals/Fundies to be pro-life, they're nothing but a death cult and a religion of wealth and power wielded immorally.
Star Member calimary (63,817 posts) 32. Wow - I'm not sure I could keep my feelings to myself!This has torn families apart, EVERYWHERE.I'm so sorry you're going through this, mommymarine2003. It's gotta be doubly hard when the stubborn stupidity and willful ignorance are in one's own family. I am grateful both our kids are sensible and taking all the precautions. Often, our son is double-masked.Sometimes I find myself wondering if we'll actually survive this as a country. But then again, it isn't just COVID that's driving the wedges separating us.
