The Axeman Cometh .. he saw .. and I MAY have conquered!
Well actually, it's the Finance Director from the LA. I dread going into the Care Home, because nearly every time, someone says "I have to tell you what John did ....", and it's not good. On Thursday, his finances will be assessed to see what he'll have to pay.
But the council's ceiling is about £200 a week less than the Care Home's cost, and frankly, I just won't be able to manage. As it is, all of John's State Pension, plus half his private pension will be taken to supplement the Council's contribution, and there is no way I can find the extra £200 a week.
I am so worried that the Home will say they can't cope with him anyway, and this, together with the lack of funds, makes me think that I'll be bringing him back home next month. On the plus side, I will have had 3 months on my own, so I've caught up on some much needed sleep.
Although John gets muddled over virtually everything, he's very insistent that he wants to go home, and is constantly asking "am I better yet?". Sorry for the rant.
