Today I spoke with Mums Social Worker and agreed that it is time to start looking for a home for Mum.
As I am moving abroad later this year I need to know that she will be safe and looked after.
My sisters are no use and I know they will object strongly to my decision, because whatever I do they shout at me, but they dont seem to be there for Mum so I have no choice. I have had to call barr one of their numbers with BT from calling my home due to abusive calls and its getting me down.
Dad passed away in June and I feel I am letting both him and Mum down by this move. It is breaking my heart. I just hope that once Mum has moved she will feel settled. She has carers calling twice a day but apart from that she is alone for a lot of the time. I see her when I can and take her to all her appointments ( doctors, dentists etc) but its not enough. She is lonely. I am hoping that being in a Home will provide company as well as the safety I feel she now needs.
What a horrible decision to make. I only hope its the right one.
Sorry for moaning, but feeling a little sad and a bit of a failure at the moment.
Hugs
