Not surprised Mr Shaz has gone to bed, wondering how you're still standing. Sounds like a massive week... and Centrelink appointments can be very exhausting.

Hi dear @Shaz51 ... it has been a busy week for you so far, and more of the week still to come. At least you will have a Smokey day tomorrow. π
Good to hear you have completed and submitted all your paperwork to Centrelink. Really hope this time your application for Carer Payment or Allowance is approved. It most definitely should be.
Which specialist has sent you back to the dietician Shaz? Kidney specialist (CKD) or endocrinologist (Diabetes)? Do you have an appointment yet? Ha ha ... I can just see you Shaz ... Boss lady! In the most gentle of ways, I am quite positive. π€π

Hi @Shaz51
You do have a lot on your work load right now and of course - it all seems to be happening with so much stress on the communities everywhere
So S2 had ADHD and depression which sounds enough but letting himself go is serious - has he had a diagnosis or is he falling in a heap and looking at that as a cause for doing so? I know the ?crisis is making it hard for people to get by - and - like - how long can this last - when I hear the press conferences the reporters are almost begging the politicians to give us the end-by date but who can tell - and it is a worry for you and for Mr Shaz that S2 is - well - battling. How can you support him? It does seem to get back to you doesn't it.
And no wonder - Mr Shaz is tiring more - this I understand - more stress for him and more anxiety - and we all battle on in different ways. I hope he is okay
And you too - have you had any news about your kidney transplant yet? You might have posted this but I haven't been in this forum at all recently - I do read the other one though I have been busy and not posting much - I hope you can keep as well as possible with all this happening
Shopping for you and your mum - and washing machine problems - who needs that? Testra issues - I have heard that - I had problems with them early in the lock down - I think they are short staffed and restaffing because they used so much off-shore support - and what else?
Of course - you went to bed and the phone had to ring when you were asleep - how often do we keep busy or just read and watch TV and no phone calls - but have a nap - phone - I find this interesting
Take it easy when you can Shaz
And I am sending you my worn-out owl - tired of the lock-down - and also - best wishes
