We were due at approval panel last month but our social worker royally messed up. She was really behind with paper work and gave us a whole load of wrong information about the process of our case. There was a lot of information that had been forgotten to be printed and put in our file and the result was the panel said they had to defer us to this month. So we put our anger to one side knowing we had to keep working with our social worker, had a meeting before Christmas to confirm we would be at panel next week and it was agreed she would be in touch on the 3rd to arrange to meet this week. So far we have heard nothing from her.
I'm so fed up of fighting social work for information or contact that I feel pretty resigned to there being another problem and next week will be cancelled as well. I don't see the point in chasing things up with our SW as we did that last time and she just gave us wrong information and kept our hopes up that the panel would be happening up until a few days before when we now know that was never going to happen.
Sorry for the moan I just wanted to off load with some people who might understand.
