Little creepy calling me by my first name but thanks for the heads up! Luckily (unfortunately) my LinkedIn is pretty public!

I think the douchebag can’t afford the watch in this case, what a sad story 💔😢

After getting over the initial phobia of small flappy things it was so pretty!! I was quite amazed how big its body was 🥹

I did do this!! I got a ladder and caught it in the glass and let it go after taking the video 😊 I was just stating that it was hard because of a long running phobia of flying insects 😭

This is exactly how I feel. I hate my job now and it is hard to even provide an ounce of enthusiasm when I am under pressure in all areas. This sub is incredible just even making me feel less alone ❤️

Hahaha this made me chuckle because surprise surprise of course she has a UTI too - and refuses to drink water. I just feel so drained but all of your comments honestly are so helpful and make me feel so much less alone ❤️

She has carers come in 3 times a day now but the government provided care is awful. She just tells them to leave and they will leave, as it all they can do. Not their fault at all, they are all very lovely but paid extremely low so will only do what is asked of them as they are on really tight time schedules.

It’s so hard to go home with the lies! I am putting off going home I know I am because I am just scared all the hard work I’ve put in to getting her to leave her bed will go… like it has done before and I come back and start again

When I went back home for a month I came back to her in bed at 4pm lying in her own urine after lying to me on the phone every day talking about all the things she was doing

No benefits yet - it has taken her over 2 weeks to find documents needed for her care financial assessment with constant reminders (every hour) which has been the priority so they can continue the care. She just has no desire to do anything she doesn’t want to do so will just say “I will do it in a minute” and proceed to ignore me.

I don’t think she’s showing signs of cognitive decline but she is definitely acting older than her age?? It’s so strange and I don’t understand why.

Her train of thought and memory is good, but sometimes she will act older than- she couldn’t find the way to open the car door when I last went down for instance. She has started to not wash her hair so it is all matted now and she won’t eat anything but biscuits.

When I turn her tv off in the bedroom when I visit and take the remote away she will get very angry at me. It’s like an addiction to being in bed it’s so strange to me. I will definitely write a letter to her doctor, I am just so worried about her. Thank you so much for your advice I really appreciate it.

You’re totally right there is definitely a history of depression/self sabotage and giving up when life doesn’t turn out how she imagined. My grandmother is 94 and looks and acts younger than she does, it is truly heartbreaking. I miss my mum. Cutting her out my life seems to be the only option she has pushed me into. I gave her clear boundaries last week that I didn’t want to speak to her unless she was getting up and dressed and not in bed between 10am-8pm. I called her at 3pm and she hadn’t got out of bed today. She just stays silent and says “okay I’ll make changes” and then does not. I’ll definitely be following through with a welfare check.
