I have custody of my 2 young grandchildren due to my daughters addiction to prescription and over the counter medications then later class A She was no angel but it started when she got hooked on Naproxen sold as Feminax she took for heavy period pains that could have been cured simply by a coil or hysterectomy . She is now seriously unwell with liver and renal failure But in the eyes of SS she’s a druggie and a bad mother. I work full time, luckily from home a few days a week with 5am starts and midnight finishes to fit it all in. I get a 9;hour a week break when my daughter has them in hospital from 9 till 12 on Saturday and dip shit dad 12 till 6pm on Sunday for a Maccy D or pub roast which I pay for. My daughter will be moving to palliative care soon. SS have advised me that the father has asked to move into my daughters flat but for the current care plan to remain so there is no disruption to their routine… yep superdad of 6 hours a week gets a paid for flat and I get nothing… Reading this thread tonight has made me so angry
