today right now I should be in London at a case conference......where am I at home as dd is poorly, she was at respite last night and got the call this morning, so went and picked her up.
in the nt world I could leave her home alone and still go as she is 15.
not in the sn world, so all my plans have bitten the dust.

one good thing is the case conference will still go on without us.

oh 2shoes, sounds like you've had a tough day.

was the case conference to do with your dd's birth? it must be very hard to have to think over it all again. and harder because you'd psyched oyurself up to go, and then had to change plans at the last minute.

how is dd now? hopefully she's feeling better too Smile

have a sit down, open the wine, and take it easy this evening

oh that's rough 2shoes, hope you are ok, large glass of wine? Hope dd feels better tomorrow.

sorry you're both having a rough day-It's hard to look back sometimes-don't know your situation,but we were told ds wouldn't make it - he clearly did !It was a very hard time- hope the whisky helps and DD feels better soon

I know how you feel - life with SN is complicated. I am thinking of returning to work as DS has just started school. He is in an ASD Unit 12 miles away which is great but I am not sure the attached MS school's childcare would accept him. My in-laws who live 20 miles in the opposite direction would help out if I can get DS back home after school. I feel like giving up!!!
