'I’ve never felt further away from the people I want to be closest to.'
I’m a freelance writer and our daughter – who’s just turned two – wasn’t yet locked into the British school system.and had no other major commitments in the UK, so all we had to do was give notice, sell the car and say goodbye.
The funeral was five days before our scheduled flight and as I stood by the graveside I knew I wasn’t just mourning the loss of a family member.had constituted little more than stubborn background noise I’d not had the bandwidth to really register.It wasn’t until one night after we’d moved out of our house and were staying in a relative’s flat, that I found out Donald Trump had restricted travel into the US.
Now I don’t know when we’ll next be able to leave the US. I’ve never felt further away from the people I want to be closest to. Although I’m mourning, we’re making do. Though pure domestic bliss is aspirational at this point, we’re healthy, have work and I feel safe within these four walls for which I’m profoundly grateful.
