Today is meant to be the day I tell him I want to separate. All planned with my mum, my oldest at school and youngest out with her, I’d be staying at my parents tonight and get the keys to my new place tomorrow. I had psyched myself up to just rip the band aid off and get it done.
My oldest has been being sick for the past couple of hours so no school for him today, he will be at home so what on earth do I do now? Surely I can’t have that conversation with a poorly child in the house? Also can’t really stay with my parents tonight because my dad has had some health problems so don’t want to make him sick too.
Anyone have any encouraging words of wisdom 😭

Get your Mum to take older child back to her house if at all possible.

I really can’t do that. My dad had a kidney transplant 8 weeks ago, I can’t risk him getting sick. Think I’m going to have to re plan and try again tomorrow.
