MSE Parents Club Part 15

SugarSpun

My options are severely limited. I can't apply for unemployment allowance since I would have to be job seeking and I am not, since I am intending to be at home with the baby. It's possible that I can get partial parental leave where they give me half the amount for the next year but I really need to talk to the personnel people properly. I am so :mad: that they left it to today to tell me.

Do you think you may get half SS?

GISI, I have no words of wisdom, like some of the others on here I'd have lost it with him. I think you're amazing. XXX

I don't know Tara, I am hoping that their bad advice will not mean that I'm too late.

There are lots and lots of :mad:'s around today!

GISI :eek: Were you discussing it?, or did he randomly confess? I'm wondering if her OH knows and he's told you before somebody else does!? I'd definately be sending her OH a message on FB. I also wouldn't be able to be as calm as you. ((Hugs))

SS I don't know what to say! What bl00dy twonks!

Sami/Elle Did you see the first November sling meet is on 5th. Would the Elle meet be able to be held at Jellybeans so Fritha and any sling meeters also get to meet Rhys? Plus I know how to get to Jellybeans without getting lost!

3- are you around? I am loving the pics of V painting on FB. I forget that your L is really an O though and get very confused.

I'm here - they've both been bathed now to take away the evidence of painting. It got very messy!
L's facebook name should really be L rather than O because nobody calls her O in real life.

My :mad: for the day is my ExKh! He's just text me asking me to phone him urgently. That normally means someone is dead, so I rang him.
The cheeky twonk, who has minimal contact with J & L, has taken it upon himself to visit a medical negligence solicitor to get them to look into J's birth! (But the solicitor needed proof of his PR, which he doesn't have - Ha!).
Apparently his friend who has a son with CP has just been awarded 5.something million compensation. I tried to explain that J doesn't have CP, but he's convinced his autism/learning difficulties are caused by his birth! Chuffing A-hole he is! :mad:

And breathe!


I've spent most of the arfternoon stalking my Secret Santa on here and facebook, but it hasn't helped, i'm still clueless!

We've had more sick. Off to a&e.

3, that's a :eek:. Yet another twonk. How on earth did he think that was right. The poor family who did get it will need it. My sisters Nephew was brain damaged at birth, severely (trainee midwife). They got a large 7 figure sum. But it's a drop in the ocean. House had to be redesigned, 24hr nurses, their marriage split up and worst of all, a very clever young man stuck in a body that doesn't work.

Money doesn't mean anything in those circumstances.

Thinking of you Tia. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Tara He's an absolute ar5e! Sadly, if his only son was worth 5+million, he'd have more interest in him.

Oh GISI.

Maybe I'm a bit odd, but in your situation, I actually wouldn't be :mad:. I would just be very very . I'm not sure if it's even the tiniest consolation that he came out and admitted to you? I've been cheated on before and the idiot denied everything up until I quoted the incriminating e-mails to his face. Caz had very good advice - you 2 need to sit down together and find a way forward. I'm not sure a "ban" so to speak is exactly the way to go, as for some people this would just make them want to rebel even more, but obviously at minimum he has to agree to avoid her company!

Would the prospect of a future [STRIKE]builder's conference[/STRIKE] London-area meet help distract you some? Ladybird was talking about it but I don't think we ever went anywhere! What do people think? Need to sort out a location first.

Bruno, glad OH's scan went well.

Tara, :mad: at the doctor's!

SS, :mad: at horrid German bureaucracy. Hopefully it was just a miscommunication and you can get it sorted tomorrow. *hugs*

:mad:what an absolute noob head, 3!

I hope Ambertronic is okay, Tia. Hugs for you all.
