Why do I feel so guilty that when SS turned up I couldn't hold back my tears and said I couldn't do it any more I just feel guilty that I can't do it anymore
Oh, Kellie-Ann, as a loving granddaughter it's only natural you should feel like this. But please try not to feel guilty!! The very fact that you burst into tears and told them you can't do it any longer, shows that you are at the end of your tether.
No-one should think any the less of you, you have given all your time and energy recently to your nan and no-one can do more. Of course you still love her, and whether she has more help at home, or goes into a care home, you will continue to love her and to be her carer. You can visit her regularly in a home, have some time together without all the worry and stress you have at the moment
And in asking for help, you will know that you have done the right thing for your nan...I think you've posted before that she needs more help than any one person can give.
Did SS give you an idea of what they are likely to do? They should produce an assessment and a care plan for your nan so that you know what to expect
And finally, do look after yourself in all this. Will they advise you on accommodation or have you got that sorted? I hope someone (a social worker or support worker of some kind) is looking out for you
Take care and let us know how you get on.
All the best
