I just need to get everything out because I think I’ll explode. Need to keep strong for everyone. Last few months have been rubbish. Summary:

-My mum has lost her job and has been investigated for fraud. Risks being struck off. She’s sold bread winner for my teenage siblings and my aging dad.

  • My father in law has been diagnosed with cancer- he has a few months to live. Mother in law is devastated as are the entire family. We saw them a few weeks ago and it was a shock to see how ill he looks. Mother in law had already had a husband die of cancer 8 years ago. Same Macmillan nurse.
  • My husband’s mental health has massively deteriorated- he’s been referred to occupational health who have restricted his work. This has made his mental health worse and it is completely debilitating. I’m finding it difficult to keep his spirits high and encourage him to engage in the recommended treatment.
  • ongoing family issues to deal with.
  • house move with financial uncertainties due to above reasons.
  • I start a new job soon with a challenging work pattern.

I just need somebody to tell me it won’t get any worse but that’s not true.

Can't tell you it won't get worse (hope it won't) but Flowers for what you are going through now.

Oh and to add to the list:
We’ve had racist attacks at our current house- eggs, rocks and abuse hurled at us. Things set on fire.
Can’t catch a break. I’m really losing motivation.

You poor woman. I truly hope things become easier where they can for you.

I certainly hope things get better for you and your family

What is your mum at risk of being struck off?

Have you reported the racist attacks to the police

You sound like you have far too much on your plate, FlowersI'm so sorry you have to go through all this stressful stuff,

TeamB1 · 28/07/2018 08:29

Thank you for the responses.
Yes reported to the police.
Can’t out myself any further by providing more details.

Is it possible (financially) to move?..that may put an end to the abuse aimed at you and your house...you shouldn't have to move from you home for these ignorant people

I don't know what's going on with your mother but try visiting citizens advice bureau and also a solicitor to see if they can help or suggest anything (if you are in certain benefits then you should be entitled to legal aid and the appointment is free)

TeamB1 · 01/08/2018 23:08

We are getting ready to move as the attacks have escalated- at least twice a week now. I hate how these awful people are kicking us out of our home.
