Dd is sick and no one to help me take her to the doctors!!

[Movingforward123]

I had my dads car which I've been using as I'm waiting to buy a new one.

Dd has a temperature, it started last night! And this morning my dad came to my house and said he needs his car back!

Now I have no car. So now I have to get a cab with dd to the out of hours doctors as I asked my mum to take me but she won't.

God I feel so fucking alone sometimes!!! Sorry just wanted to moan as I feel like crying!

Also once I get my car I won't be bothering with my useless family anymore! They are just rubbish!

Hope you and your daughter are ok OP. It's a scary, crappy shitty place to be when you realise that you are on your own - it hits hard sometimes and then I pick myself up again and look at the kids and think that I CAN do this on my own.
Ignore the harsh replies you've had on this thread - especially the ones who talk about not having anyone to rely on. Apart from partners who may be at work

I hope she comes back and sees that there are plenty of its who understand.

Tbf I do think it's impossible to understand unless you've been there. You may think you understand but you really don't.

It's impossible to understand why having a partner who is hundreds of miles away is still a partner. Is still someone who loves you, who Ives your children like you do and who is on the end of the telephone.

There just isn't a way to explain why it's different. Well there probably is but I don't have the words to do it.

Twat phone is not helping me get my words across either

I understand you OP - it can sometimes be a lonely and overwhelming slog being a lone parent. Rant away.

I hope your DD and you feel better soon.

Some people are sooo harsh. Plus giving medical advice, saying stay home, without all the facts. If my DCs temp doesn't come down after calpol I always get them checked.
I'm a single parent with 2 DCs and its bloody hard, especially when u get thrown a curve ball like this. I understand exactly how u feel and its so difficult but try not to view things so negatively, have a stamped around about the unfairness of it then pull it together and once u get going the practical parenting will take over, it won't always seem so lonely.

FFS why so harsh, I feel if this had been posted on a Sunday afternoon it would be awash with sympathy, something seems to happen around tea time on MN on a Friday night must be all that wine getting everyone all chopsy.

I know the feeling OP and whilst of course you will cope very well, it does sometimes hit us how very much on our own we are and that at times is a little scary. And it helps to off load those feelings. Hope all goes well for dd and she is on the mend soon.

Have you told your mum how this lack of support has hit you. Sometimes other people just don't understand when we need some emotional hand holding unless we come out and ask for it.

How are you doing OP ? Hope your Dd is feeling better and you are okay.
