Good evening, looking to vent but also desperate for advice. My 79 year old mother is being made homeless tomorrow at noon by Social Services
My mum has cared for my dad for 9 years. She has 2 carers twice a day to see to do my dads personal care. Dad had an awful stroke 9 + years ago leaving him right side paralysed. Dysphagia and Dysphalgia, very stubborn, very sweary. The lovely dad I had is long gone. He verbally abuses my mum. The doctors think he has cancer but he wouldn't be able to undergo any treatment so we have been left to guess. My mum has her own struggles with her physical heath, bad hip, cold symptoms and her mental health hasn't been much better. She's been on seroxat and sleeping tablets for decades. Her marriage was mentally abusive. She can't take anymore. Told social services she can no longer cope and doesn't want him home. My dad's capacity overrules all that. He is due home tomorrow at noon. My mum is packing her bags. The social worker is some 25 yr old. Never met my dad. Totally believed his delusions. Dad said he can get his own meals ( puree diet? He hasn't been able to do a thing since 2015)Also says he has a bankcard lol yes it expired in 2015. He does not have a grasp of finances at all.
