@Shaz51  Hey Shaz51 dont know what to say re cousin .... how about politely telling her your (and I would stress the your) mother is not dead yet and to wait until she is asked to help. Idk some people. peaxx

@Former-Member , I got it

While it was a relief and it has taken the pressure off financially,  I have still kept my part time work @Shaz51  as there likely will come a time when I won't qualify for the carer payment and might have to go on Newstart.

thank you @Jacques , @greenpea , @Former-Member , @Anastasia , @Emelia8 , @Owlunar 

it was a shock last night

feeling a bit better now but not sure wheather to say something to my cousin or just let it go 

I know Mr shaz is liking my cousin less now after that 

yes i got the carers pension today and we are still keeping our regulars as we don't know how long i will be able to get the pension 

it would be good if we still got the aged pension when we turned 60

Yay @Shaz51 thats great news regarding the carers payment. 🎉

And good to see that approval came through pretty quickly too. 👍

yes it was a surprise @Emelia8  but am pleased 

how are you my friend xxxx

[Emelia8]

A very pleasant surprise @Shaz51 .  You could say that they finally got it right (second time around) ... better late than never. I am very relieved for you Shaz as its something you should have had ages ago. I expect it will help relieve some of Mr Shaz's anxiety too. 👍

That's great news about the Carers Pension  - that's a plus @Shaz51 

You know you cousin Shaz - she has crossed a line here but probably she means the best  but I wouldn't like it myself  - my sister took over when our parents died and I felt pushed out  - it's a sensitive time  - that's for sure and I feel for you 

So perhaps you could thank your cousin and ask her to wait about organising anything else until after your mother dies - maybe she just wants to be included  - I understand  - it's too soon for you to think about it 

Oh dear- Dec💜💙🦉😷

thank you my second mum @Owlunar 

yes my cousin did one for her father months before he passed away

my mum does not want a slideshow or a big deal , she wants it to be a celebration 

yes my cousin is loving but at the moment i do not need it as mum is looking ok xoxo
