KITCHENER -- A Kitchener, Ont. man says he wasn't allowed to visit his mother in her nursing home after he gave her a hug at a prior visit.
"I really thought that was the end," he said. "I was mentally preparing for that for about a month. It was really rough." Sorensen first visited his mom at the home on July 7. Although the home had sent out visitation regulations saying people needed to stay six feet apart, he said he was overwhelmed with emotion and hugged her.
"They had over a week to communicate with me as an adult and, you know, maybe stress the fact that I can't see her," he said. "You can't just cut her off, that messes with her mental awareness."
