    Not only is the doorstop a great idea, but also provide him with a big tub of quality street (or whatever), that they can share ;)

    I think 200 cans of reloaded would be better :rotfl:

    Ninth Anniversary
    aww thanks for asking

    yes there was a meeting this morning(i didnt go ) the head phoned me after it and she was basically told that if theres a repeat performance then she will not be able to come in school grounds the head suggested she appoligised to which im not expecting but theres a school disco 2nite so maybe she will, im hoping she will as i will except it and try make her feel welcome :j

    as some said last nite it mightbe all she knows

    (no excuse at her age)

    but im willing to keep the peace for my kids (and my self:eek:)

    i shall let you know after disco if she appologised (fingers crossed)

    Hopefully she will apologise and not repeat the behaviour.
    I think you are doing so well to think in this way after what she did.
    Hope tonight brings apology.:)
    Smile :) and hopefully the world will smile back

    hi all noticed a few people are concerned about youngsters for one reason or another i really feel for you all my dd2 was bullied badly at school and it affected her badly so i know how worrying it is and how hard it is to stop so hugs to you all and to anyone else that is poorly or needs a hug xx

    worried about mum at the moment she fell yesterday broke her wrist in 3 places is in hospital waiting to get a plate and wires fitted. she lives on her own and i am worried how she will cope, i am going to hers later to have a tidy ( shes very messy ) and fill the freezer with ready meals and will go in every day but any suggestions of things i will need to organise or do to help her thanks.

    When my Dad was taken in after a fall he was assigned a social worker to assess his needs.

    We organised him to have hot meals delivered everyday (like the old fashioned meals on wheels service) In his area you have to pay for it (unless you are just have the basic state pension)

    It sounds like your mum might need help with washing and dressing as well - this is not somehting district nurses do now, it has to be carers or one of the family that has to go and help your mum with this.

    And then she will also need to see the physio to get the strength and movement back into her arm after its mended

    The best thing I ever bought my mum was a Tefal One cup, with her illness she has not got the strength or balance to fill a kettle. This might be a good idea if your mum only has the use of one arm. I fill it every night for her ready for the next day. It says holds 6 cups but mum usually gets about 7 or 8 out as you can adjust the setting and she just pops her cup under and presses the button, boiling water in seconds. :)

    I'm sure Nannylala can help with this one;)She broke her wrist after falling off a chair and had an op to sort it out. It was her left wrist and she is left handed and don't like to say it but it left her far more incapacitated than she thought it would:(She stayed with me for the first week but couldnt even wring a flannel out or open a lid for ages:(Best to try and get some extra help if you can. Mind you Nannylalas biggest gripe was not being able to get her make up on properly or wash her hair ;)

    Sorry about your mum. :( The ready meals etc will help. Can you check with hospital/occupational health if there are any aids they can provide for use within the house? Maybe they could do an assessment before she goes home.
    when you go back to hospital ask them to put you in touch with home help for your mum , they might be able to help you will things and day to day with yr mum , rather than ready meals for every day can she come to your house for evening meals some nites? also is there a day center she could go to near by. near me there is a bussiness called age concern and they help out when needed so mabe see if theres something like that about

    thanks for your replies had not thought about talking to the hospital about help so thank you both i will do that, unfortunatly were we are , very rural, there is no day centres or anything i would love to have her for tea each day but i dont drive and she lives over 30 minuites away there is one bus i can get there and one home during the day and none in the evening so am cooking meals as well now to put in freezer hopefully if oh is home from work early enough he can collect her.
    thanks again :A

    thanks everyone for your replies and suggestions you are all :A love the one cup idea will look in to one of those .
    begining to think it is going to be harder than we thought
    have mentioned to her about needing help she just said i have one good arm still, and says she will be fine,
    we have no room for her to stay here and i dont think she would want to anyway i wish we were a bit nearer and that i drove it would make things easier,
