Its been a while since i last posted on here but i need help & advice about looking after my Mum.
I work full time but care for her when i get home in the evenings & weekends when i can.
Just wondering what financial help is available if i quit my job to be a full time carer?
Carers allowance doesnt seem like much to live on & im not sure i would be able to survive on this without my wage.
Mum is getting worse & i dont want to put her in a home. She currently has morning care but she is gradually getting worse & i feel i should do more.
Any advice would be welcome as i feel i am out of my depth here.
