Hey Happy Daddy, Hope you had a lovely 4 day break, and youre feeling less stressed today. Do you have any brothers or sisters who might be able to help with the aged parent situation ? Its very hard seeing ones parents get older and less able, and the traditional roles being reversed where the child becomes the looker-afterer.
Take care of you, Youre a special guy . xIts just a bad day, Not a bad life .. :cool:0 -
It is very stressful trying to juggle work, looking after parents and all the hassle you have trying to see your daughter.
I don't have an easy answer to all this stress but I know you need to ask for help from people who can support you.
I know from all your posts you as such a caring and determined person but you should not feel ashamed to ask for help from either family or outside services.
If you continue to try to struggle alone it will catch up with you and then you will not have the strength to carry on. I know about this as I was in a similar position many years ago.
Please, for your own well being try to get some help and stay strong. :A0 -

Thanks Shelski and everyone else for your comments I really do appreciate it i take everything on board what you all say. In my heart I will keep fighting and plodding on, a few posts ago one lady wrote about how ugly the situation will become, the lies that are said and the things that will go on, on a weekly basis the situation changes I am in a position now, and each situation is different that I see my daughter from the Friday to the Saturday this was given back to me by the ex but she knows that I have to work two weekends a month originally I was seeing her from Friday after school till Monday 8pm its been like this for 9 years now.DD hates the new arrangements and cries on a weekend, and I am finding it hard but thankful that at least I am seeing her now compared to before and I will keep the situation going trying to get more time back with my daughter via solicitor.
Financially I am now feeling that I have backslided a bit and need just re directing onto a fresher path again, but this is the Beauty with a Diary it motivates, people listen and you will get a reply, I found a lovely quote on the internet recently SUCCESS begins in the second letter U I love that, so I am proud to say I am back not to a hundred percent But i am ready to start my baby steps again on my path in becoming Debt free. Have a great Friday folks you are just one step away from the weekend.HDx
