The editor from the Crossroads magazine emailed me to ask if she could talk to me. I expect she will ring this afternoon. I am going to mention that I heard about the excellent reputation of Crossroads through Talking Point.
The SW was supposed to ring me today but she didn't so I rang her office. I was told she was in at first and that I'd be put through. Then I was told that she couldn't come to the phone but would ring me back. After several hours I rang back again and was told that she was now working from home. I said I was very concerned and would like to talk to someone about being assigned someone else. The man said he would speak to her personally on the phone and talk through my concerns. The outcome is that my case should go to panel tomorrow but if the Manager feels there aren't enough cases to present then it will definitely be next Thursday. It's a case of just wait and see.
If I don't get the extra hours I won't be able to attend the Carers Support group on Friday because I cannot leave Alan for that length of time any more.
Love
