I discovered through the back door that Zoey now has a new social worker from the Younger Adults Team. So far she has lied to me twice. The system showed her being allocated Zoey on 12th, last Friday yet, she told me on Tuesday she’d just been told and was going to speak to her manager to arrange an assessment and get back to me Tuesday afternoon. So, she lied about when she was told about and, of course, I’ve received no contact since. So, already off to a bad start! I will call again tomorrow and see what BS she has for me. Spoke to a doctor earlier at the local surgery. My cholesterol issue is almost certainly as a result of my illness back in December in the Philippines. My kidneys and liver are apparently not functioning properly. I am amazed they did no tests to ensure the bug was out of my system as it was said to go to those organs next once it cleared my stomach. Anyway, I am still on statins for the foreseeable future. I am also on a maintenance dose of Vitamin D for a few m...

Do you remember the nurse from CTPLD Kettering who reported me for allegedly making my sons’ money disappear? Had the meeting today with her and one of her bosses, it went well. She might have got off lighter had she kept her mouth shut but she is one of these power women who has to assert her authority. Me and my amazing friend Helen were able to convince her boss that safeguarding needs to be as a last resort, after all other measures have been taken and failed. That despite what they think, which is that it’s just an admin thing, the very word ‘safeguarding’ doesn’t sound anything like ‘admin’ to a family member or carer getting the call from them. The Care Quality Commission say this of ‘safeguarding’: “ Safeguarding means protecting people's health, wellbeing and human rights, and enabling them to live free from harm, abuse and neglect” Doesn’t sound like admin at all really put in that context! So when someone gets a call telling them they are being investigated with ...

Still nothing from Social Services. I’ve called and written the NHS Crisis team have emailed The local MP has written The Ombudsman is on the case Still not an utterance from them. I cannot believe that what they’re doing is even legal and hope sincerely that someone loses their job over this! I am now have to pay out for services for Zoey myself, more accurately, Zoey’s benefit money is having to be spent on what should have been provided for her. Meeting Tomorrow With the woman and her boss who was the one to start off a safeguarding case against me. Now, the case was dismissed after a quick chat with the investigator but, how very dare she decide to cause waves for me when she might, even easier, have just spoken to me directly! It’s not often I get to confront one of the cowards who reports me for something I haven’t done because they can. I think I shall enjoy the experience. I think I need to not offer my services any further! It seems that I agree to do something, for f...
