      I feel I’m in a difficult position right at this moment. I’ve posted before about my parents, my Dad being abusive and my Mum being ill. Now my Mum’s health has deteriorated and I think she is fading. Recently I was with them and it’s so hard for me as I pick up on abusive he says and does. I’ve spoken to my brother who is better at giving the facts o of mum s illness to me as it’s connected to his job and I know that she doesn’t have long. I’m still temping and have told them I need to be part time and they are desperate so it’s ok. It’s a bit of a stupid job and I’m not good at it but it’s something. Today I’ve dropped my daughter off at school, I’ve texted work to say I’m off to see my mum, which if always a day trip as it’s so far. They won’t be happy all but I really don’t care if they let me go. I am exhausted and never know if I’m doing the right thing or not the moment, but going to work when. I would be absolutely no good today seems stupid. I’ve been so close to Mum, she’s always done whatever she could for me and apart from the last few years, I’ve turned to her without hesitation to talk about whatever I’ve needed to, so this is all so sad for me.
      Just wanted somewhere to offload this, so thank you ladies

      Dear Eve1. I think you are right to spend as much time with your mum as possible. It may also give you some comfort and time to recharge . X

      Thank you. I had a little time just with her. Being around my Dad is awful and I need time recover afterwards

      Thank you for your support.
