    Earlier in the week, or last week, not sure, Biggest of Mooloo gave me a bottle of Rose wine. I have succombed to opening it.
    Trying to relax and the rest. But its just not happening.
    DGD is at least happily playing and her mum is coping well. So I can permit an early glass of wine.
    I am very tired too. Thats the stress I suppose.
    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.

    Sometimes having a good cry is a sign of strength, it gets it out of your system and you can then have a good sniff, a good cup of tea and crack on.
    Have an early night, the rest will do you good and I'm sure you need it.

    Does wine count?

    Right, I am going to make myself sign off, and relax.
    Thanks for all the help.
    I will deal/not deal with the parking fine tomorrow or not as the case may be.
    DGD is now in bed.
    Twin1 is now going to sleep out in DS;s tent that he left up in the lawn!
    Ds was supposed to put it down, but of course he didnt,
    Now he is gone.!j
    What will tomorrow bring? God knows.
    I feel aged, tired and gutted. Why did I ever let it get to this? But that is what has now happened!

    Och, Mooloo, I'm sorry that this is happened, but the truth is that it's in the boys' best interests perhaps, too. Have they been checking to see if DTwin2 has PND or anything else asides from her disability, it just seems to me that she's taken a lot of steps backwards since the baby was born, when she was looking originally like the one who might just get there. I don't knwo why there is not more supported accomodation for families with parents with social / learning difficulties. An on call houseworker, domestic supervisor, central laundry, to encourage them to live with their children in a safe environment in the community. Oh yes I do, there's no flaming money. I am screaming for you inside just now. Also because I know so many ASD children who will become adults who will end up on the fringes of society, when actually a nourishing environment like that would help them live a life like everyone else if they choose. Sorry that doesn't help you at all does it?

    Have a glass of wine, put your feet up and feel all the love from us wash over you. X

    Oh Mooloo, I am so sorry it has come to this. i cannot imagine how you must be feeling tonight.

    The boys will be fine with their foster carers, and you cannot physically care for them the way they need. Hugs. xxxx

    Exactly what is needed. Funding to have the help in the home to keep families together. First words at the meeting last week was " we dont want to split the family up" One word from a health visitor and the clamps were on.

    Right better go, as I really am in too much pain, and even the typing is taking its toll on me. The left arm is the biggest effected. And my lower back. What scares me is the cramps that are now coming in my lower limbs.
    So I will say good night to everyone. Thankyou too

  • Jackie, I dont know if it's also lack of awareness/creativity on the part of professionals. Although my supported living company is mostly for people with mental health problems, we do sometimes have houses as well as 1 bed flats and we are able to take referrals for anyone with "housing related support needs". This should also be true for lots of companies funded by Supporting People. In 8 yrs I have never had a referral for someone with children. I suspect professionals regard our type of service as something for single people. I dont know why.

    Mooloo, you are in no way evil granny. You have acted in the best interests of your GS, the supreme sacrifice of an involved adult, the ability to put the childs needs first. You are to be commended.
