  1. Posted something similar on the depression thread at the weekend. Wouldn't wish any hurt on my mum though although it is infuriating when both my brothers can go out at the weekend then gloat about it by posting on facebook. Just like you I can only go to the football as long as I leave at the end of the game. Leave house at 2.30pm and back by 5 (live only a couple of streets away from East End Park). Whereas before hand I would be going into the city centre to get drunk and finish it up with a chippy. As far as my circumstances are concerned it's not too bad between about 10am to 7.30pm as my mum has 4 carers that come to visit to help with her dressing, getting washed, going to the toilet etc. The nights are the worst though because you are on your own. I do have a lot of help from fife council who visit regularly. This all started because my mum was diagnosed with dementia. She has had these 4 carers daily since she left hospital in July last year. Looks to me you should get in touch with west dunbartonshire carers - https://carerswd.org/ . Hope they can help. I ended up going to a therapist and he is a great help if only for venting when I go every 2 weeks. Just remember what you are doing is great, this time last year I didn't think I could have done this for more than a couple of weeks. Yes it is bloody hard but you will get there.
  2. Had an horrific last 18 months. In January 2022 my mother went into hospital after suffering a stroke she was then diagnosed as having dementia. My father then tried to kill me 3 times. Firstly by trying to punch me but because I punched him back that did not work. He then tried to make sure I could not escape from my bedroom by locking me in my bedroom when I was asleep and then removing the slates from the house so that if I tried to get out off the house via the window I would end up dead by crashing through the porch. Eventually he was admitted to stratheden in May 2022. My mother then came out of hospital on 1st July 2022. She would have came out earlier but because of the physical abuse my father dealt out with to both me and my mother she could not come home until my so called father was admitted to a psychiatric ward. My father was then due to come out in November but this was delayed until on 6th December 2022 I was informed on that date that my father passed away. My mother was crestfallen she had been married to him for 63 years. Since the 1st of July last year I have been looking after my mum as a full time carer. I am trying to do this as well as trying to hold down a full time job as well. Christ this is hard as a result of this my health is getting worse. I have now developed diabetes because I am looking after my mum and as a result can not get out of the house because I do not get any support from my 2 brothers who couldn't care less about my mum and just go on about her inhertance. I couldn't care less about any money. I would rather my mum lives until 100 than care less about any stupid inheritance. I was due to go to Norway 2 weeks ago after booking this trip when the fixtures got announced last year. I lost about £300 because my brothers are so bloody selfish. I would rather be with my mum though. Watched both games against Norway and Georgia with my mum and could never have been happier when I saw the look of joy on my mother's face when we won both those games. My mother because of her prognosis will only get worse. I love my mum and every night I cry myself to sleep because she does not deserve this. Everybody says I am doing a great job but I am not my mum just says every day that she would rather be dead. I say to her that she has 4 grandchildren who love her so much. I am crying while I am typing this because I worry about my mother. I am currently seeing a therapist and he is a great help. My health is getting worse because no one in my family is helping me and as well as developing diabetes I can not move my right arm because of lifting my mum that much. Fife council have been bloody brilliant but I feel that if I do not get help within the next 9 months then I will end up in hospital. This will mean that my mum will go in to care which I will fight tooth and nail to make sure this will not happen. Sorry for the rant but just thought I would like to vent. Love my mum.
  3. Best 2 to 3 weeks of my life were in France in 98. Had a blast everywhere I went regardless of the scoreline. Scoring that penalty against Brazil when I was outside the Stade De France watching the game with half scottish and half brazilian fans. Equalising against Norway in Bordeaux and losing to Morocco in St. Etienne. Thanks Broonie. R.I.P.
  4. Wonder if he ever did finish building that house ?
  5. Notice they keep referring to the coronation as a once in a generation event. Does that mean if (and he probably will) Charles snuffs it before 2053 we can't have another coronation until then ?
