Hester, I am appalled and incensed on your behalf that the SW had the temerity to expect you to step up and take over your grandchildren. Its their responsibility to put a care package in place to help your daughter through this. Its not something you, at your age, or in your state of health they should expect you to do. For god sake you need to work to keep your head above water and pay your own bills. Your job is stressful enough without having a pip squeek pile more on you. It is not up to you or your husband to do more, its up to SS to put a workable care package in place. They are supposed to help not put you back in hospital with stress!!

I am afraid I would tell her to go and take a long walk off a short pier after she has been to play on the motor way. Does this woman actually have any experience of what you and your family are going through. I am willing to bet that she was educated at university, no experience of life in any lane......

I think you need to report her to her superiors and also to your local council who employ her and your MP. It is disgusting that you should have been spoken to in that way. Never mind handbagging it would be a load of manure from me!!

You and the rest of your family are doing all you possibly can to help....all the SWorker can do is criticize, she should be asked to take over and do what she wants you to do.

I had better shut up before I really put my foot in it.....but believe me I am very angry on your behalf.

Oh Judi, I am so sorry for your loss, but your Mum is now at peace and you were with her, I hope that is a comfort to you.

Much love

Judi, I am sorry to read your news.

She is at peace now and you have nothing to reproach yourself for. You made sure she was comfortable and had everything she wanted. No one could have done more.

I really hope that your brother and his girlfriend keep themselves in check. I do know what its like. I am still having problems with my sons daughter who cannot understand why she cannot sell the house and get her hands on the cash. At the rate she is going there will be no cash left for her, or her siblings. Thats my problem.

Take care.

I'm so sorry to hear you news, but at least she is a peace now, big hugs, take care of yourself in the coming weeks.

Csarina, thank you I am now feeling more upbeat and more able to fight back, I will be composing a few emails about the lack of support my DD is receiving and that SS are expecting me to pick up their slack!

Hugs Hester

Judi May your dear Mum rest in peace . I am so glad you were held and comforted at the home and hope things are not complicated by other people in the days ahead . It seems wrong to say enjoy your time away but I hope you get some badly needed rest and a chance to grieve in peace .

I am so sorry to hear about your Mum but glad for both your sakes that you were there (and always have been ).

I hope the relatives don't cause you more grief and that you are able to look after yourself and recuperate from the stress and grief.

Hugs to all
