Wasnt sure where to post this, but anyway.
My 12yr old dd has been through a lot in the past year or two - January 2012 her dad, my x, had a very serious stroke, then she broke her hip, and now it gets worse:
My x's mother and her mother both developed Alzheimer's and died within two years. We are worried that he too is developing the disease as he has been forgetting pretty serious stuff like dd's name and her breaking her hip.
Dcs have just returned from dad's, they normally all hate it, but today dd said she wants to go to see him on a regular basis like she used to before we moved to London (he lives in Liverpool) I.e. every fought night or so.
Dd also wants to see him alone as the other two 'don't understand'. Although she is very responsible, I am not sure I want her going on such a regular basis at all, and she says she won't go if the other two go. I already have enough to deal with with her twin battling anorexia, but she feels so strongly about it.
What should I do???
