Hi Walford sorry can't offer you any help here but I am bumping for you so that someone can soon come along to give you good advice.

dear walford,

really sorry for you, it must be so hard tocope with. Really I cannot help but maybe someone else can.

Can you get yourself a break from it all? Can anyone have the kids or one or two of them for a night. With 3 under ten most people would be knackered and stressed out, and in that state it's hard to see the good in anything.
