Hi. I'm looking for thoughts/ideas/signposting to help support a friend.
Friend has MS, a partner and a toddler, she rents with her mother also... this has been an arrangement that until now has mostly worked. Friend has MS, partner works ft so mother has helped out with child plus reduces costs for her living alone.
In the last year relations between friend and her mother have declined, some nastiness plus silence making caring for toddler difficult. Friend has put toddler into nursery 2 days but as her pregnancy continues is finding everything more tiring.
Everyone around her is of the opinion she and partner need to get their own place for her mh and so family can grow without nastiness from her mother. Friend agrees but is obviously concerned how she'll cope .... any suggestions ? I was thinking maybe an au pair or nanny but please throw some suggestions my way.
Friend is realistically not going to move until babba is here in new year but it'd be good to give her some positive ideas to think about for next year.
Thanks
