I have traveled interstate where i have been for the past 2 months to help care for my terminally ill father, who is now in palliative care at home. I have used up all of my leave I now have to return home and not get to spend the days with my dad because there I cannot get on another flight until June. And then have to isolate for 14 days back in WA
