Where does time go and how can I get it to slow down? This week raised some concerns and potential deteriation in Mollys presentation, highlighted these to all concerns and have a psychiatric appointment this coming Thursday. Better to make sure we are all doing everything possible for her. Always knew this wasn’t the end…

Beautiful present received for Molly from an old school friend of mine – thank you Catharine Naylor – just perfect! Managed to get the bath water temperature sorted out but the new remote thermostat is a bugger to control to say the least, sat last night on youtube trying to work it out and I…

The discharge has been postponed, met with professionals yesterday to discuss Mollys current presentation which is deteriorating due to the commencement of the transition plan. If funding had come in sooner we could of maybe prevented this delay. I agree with this decision Molly is feeling scared she feels safe on Edenwood after all she…
