In one hour's time I will be taking part in a Stage 3 panel to try and get the Social Services to admit they were negligent in their "care" of me when I was in care.

An independant person has already assessed my file (Stage 2) and found that they were negligent (though not used that word) but we have gone on to the next stage as I want them to admit liability.

They say they can't and that it has to go to court. I know they don't want to admit liability as they are then open to me suing them but the Stage 2 lady told me I shoud and they have insurance for this.

I have already seen a solicitor and we would need barristers should it go to court.

All I asked for was them to say sorry. They wouldn't.

Any money I do get I am going to buy new toys for the kids at the hospital and any local children's homes.

Wish me luck.

I feel sick.

DS2 in bed. DH on his way home to be here and DD is going home at 1.30 with a school friend.

good luck - have you some Rescue Remedy ?

NAB3wishesfor2008 · 09/01/2008 13:42

Thanks all.

I am embarrassed about my past so don't say much. Plus I was worried about people who know me in RL seeing it on here and my kids being affected. I lost 2 nanny jobs and nearly lost another because of my past.

Just done rescue remedy. Thanks for that.

Still really scared.

I'm feeling quite worn out now. Can't believe I have done it and I am sure I am going to have to go to court.

Off to eat far too much chocolate.
