Hello again, the first thing I thought about this morning on waking was your problems. I don't normally post on this forum but your case (situation) seriously caught my attention.
What I've given you is the fastest route to solving your problems and with the least effort from you as you and your 2 children are not just at imminent risk of homelessness but you in particular are at immediate risk of death from your seriously uncontrolled and unmanageable diabetes.
Onchy with a PhD in housing tenure options in his post here, has informed you that your local council has a duty of care to you and your children under UK legislation as you are all vulnerable. Neglect is a form of abuse and in your case the Council is clearly neglecting it's duty of care to you and your children. The care act 2014 places a lot of duty on the Local Authority in this type of situations hence my earlier advice to you. Councils also have a legal duty to deal with SVA alerts almost immediately and put strategies or structures in place to protect the vulnerable party or parties in your case.
There are various forms of abuse. Get to know what these are.
You have asked for help. It's up to you if you would accept what is clearly a straight forward solution to you problems in yours and your children's interests.
Good luck
You need an advocate. Have you informed your MP of all that you are having to endure?
Hi again, don't worry about worrying me. I'm more concerned about your extreme vulnerabilities. Acute Stress is very debilitating especially when caused by various severe underlying factors as in your case. I care deeply for vulnerable people thats why I've been a qualified MHP for a very long time.I've written an email to my son's social worker, asking for help. Telling her whats been going on over the weekend and how I can't cope anymore. I have a good relationship with her. I mentioned an assessment for vulnerable adults.
I understand what you are saying about housing. Thank you.
Sorry for worrying you.
I'm not on insulin but used to manage it for someone who couldn't do it for themselves, and one thing I learned was not to give it if they weren't eating. So my question is, if you are not eating at all, should you hold off on using insulin?<sigh> My son's social worker said I'd need to speak to some other social worker department and ask for help based on one of my health problems. So god knows how many people I'd end up saying how I felt to. I will have to manage.
Blood sugars been ok thank goodness. Looks like my insuin sensitivity has increased. Thank god I'm using a sliding scale. Bit cautious about eating though.., haven't had anything today. Didn't dare sleep last night in case of hypo (as I was using such a lot of insulin). Been busy trying to get the place ship shape so very tired now.
