Re: not coping

its govt housing so theyre usually pretty good. i have to have a meeting with them though because i have to discuss what will happen to me when pop goes into a home as my application to become a tenant currently is declined so its abit stressful and they need pop to sign paperwork that says i can act on his behalf for the house etc should anything happen @Snowie

Re: not coping

Must be stressful @outlander Hopefully your pop lets you do that.

Just got my name put down on mums bank accounts so I can take over if need be. Also got a call from the memory clinic that other day. Hopefully we can see the specialist soon.

Re: not coping

he will @Snowie he doesnt know what its for but its also so i can call up if the house needs repairs etc as well.

i hope you get in to see the specialist soon. the wait list can be crazy busy at times esp in more smaller towns when theyre more limited as well.

Re: not coping

It's hard when they don't have the capacity @outlander

My mum has been at her sister's for the past week so has been a bit of a break for me. She is home Friday.
