Welcome to the forum @ChloeJ.

I’m sorry to hear about your dad. You’re very young to have caring responsibilities. I hope you have someone to share these with.

Hello @ChloeJ welcome to DTP this is a friendly and supportive forum please feel free to ask questions about what ever you have concerns about someone will have experienced something very similar.
I hope now you have found the forum you will continue to post for support and to share your experience.

Hi ,@ChloeJ
A warm welcome from me too

Rather than using the Reply button on a post .... It can be easier to reply by going to the empty text box at the bottom of a thread and simply typing in there

Don`t apologise for anything @ChloeJ It takes a while to get used to this site.

There is always someone here to help. Just ask.

I hope you are getting some help with your dad. It can be a very lonely life without help and support.
