Carers Update

Where do I start? Well, it’s going marginally well... The day carer going ok so far, as long as nothing goes wrong and they don’t turn into Mr. Hyde. But, I’m having a lot of trouble and stress w/ the night carers, just not very competent: spilling my piss all over my trousers and pants; spilling a whole glass of water on me and leaving me drenched clothes over night for 10+ hours; severely coughing and sneezing all night in my room; trying to sleep w/ carer’s very stinky feet (as they take shoes off at night); having to put up w/ carer’s damn loud mobile phone ringing all throughout the night every 10 min. and hearing carers’ snoring at night, even though it’s a Walking Night Care Duty (both the a breach of the care company policy; and more. And that was all in the first four nights! :-(


Also, I am finding it quite emotionally hard to adjust to the carers, as my parents have entirely taken care of me for the past 22 years. However, I am very hopeful that things will get better...
