I could do with a carer myself as I have severe stage c.o.p.d. However I am carer to my 83 year old mum and it's having a huge impact on my life.

Thanks for sharing GillyJ, unfortunately I think your situation may be a common but overlooked one. Would you be able to talk to us? My colleague Tamara is collecting case studies at the moment to inform the development of BLF's support services and would be interested in speaking to you. Do give her a call or email with your contact details on:

A Think Carer's Family Members Are Short Changed .... Social Services To Busy Hiding A Remember A Time When They Dd More Than Kind Words Like Helped

Don't Get Me Wrong A Think The People Do A Gret Job ... But With Cuts There Finding There Hands Tied

In My Own Experience My Dad Suffered X3 Chronic Heart Failure ... And Left Him With Slight Alzheimer's 5 Years On .... Hospital Ambulance Men Did Great Job And Very Thank Full

But When He Left Hospital Discharged Him Self ...... We Received Know Help Or Advice Didn't Even Shove A Leaflet In Is Pocket

But What Is Not So Great ...... Is How We Get Un Solicited Mail Going On About Scans And All Sorts Rubbish
