Hate being single

I hate being single. I need to go to a&e and I can't even get there as I have 4 kids who I can't take and no one to have them. I literally have no one.

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Hi Kitty, didn’t want you to feel alone on here too.

What age are you kids? What about your family?

I’m sure you’re doing a great job with them, but I can’t even imagine how hard that must be. X

Thats is awful .. Can you get doctor on call ? Feel for you

niceupthedance · 13/01/2018 15:18

I’d call 111

I’m sure there have been others in your position and the call handler will know what to do.

It’s shit though, I’m sorry.

I've been bleeding heavily for 8 weeks I've been to the dr about it but they just fobbed me off with some medication that hasn't worked. Today I am pouring with blood sorry tmi but I can't even stand up or walk without it pouring out and huge clots. I'm concerned about how much blood I'm losing. My children are 6,5,3 and 8 months. Unfortunately there has been a big family fall out and now no one talks to anyone, the only person I have is my dad but he is disabled. Ex is absent through choice. Don't really have any proper friends no one I could ask to have them.

It sounds like you really need to get to a and e. Could you afford to pay a babysitter for the day? Failing that I think maybe you should ask social services if they have a suggestion for temporary childcare solutions as this seems rather important. Years ago social services called me out of the blue as a school mum, who I didn't know at all, had broken her leg and needed help getting her son to school. Worth a try?

Call 111 now they wil want you to go by ambulance tell them about the children -you won't be the first (or last). If you pass out what you the children do?
