Waiting for miracle
I spent another couple of hours in bed just wishing for things to be different. And I don’t even mean perfect, I am fully aware that my family is far from normal and perfect is too much to aim for. I just want them to be a bit better than they are now. First of…

Difficult feelings
I woke up early in the morning with the thought that if my mum ends up in the care home permanently, I’ll never forgive my brother. Not that our relationship is good now, so it will probably not change anything and he won’t even notice. My mum could of course live in a small, rented…

Ridiculous
I’m thinking, how ridiculous this situation is. Normally when an elderly relative has money (although I don’t know how much is left after the fraud), everyone wants to help them. In my mum’s situation my brother is totally ignoring her. He could have used the situation when she’s in the care home to go and…

The fraud
I hope, when I get to mum’s bank after I get power of attorney, it will turn out that all her money got missing. If there’s nothing left, I wouldn’t need to do anything. I’d just organise the rest of her pension, that she has left, to get transferred to the care home, so that…

Honesty
I do admit, I’m angry with my mum. I told her multiple times not to leave the UK without me, but she got totally obsessed with coming back to Smardzewice, so shortly after quarantine was lifted for travellers who are vaccinated I booked her the flight ticket and arranged for transport to the airport. I…

The neighbour
On the way back from the lake I met my neighbour on the street, the same neighbour who was helping me to get my brother up the other day. She told me not to transfer my share of the property here to my brother. She said, what may then happen will be, it can be…

Walk to the lake
I had a walk to the lake and got an ice cream there. It was rather chilly when I was leaving the house and then suddenly got quite hot. That’s what we used to do with mum when I was at home for the weekend and the weather was nice: having a walk to the…

Smoked mackerel
I went to the shop to get some food for the weekend and saw some smoked mackerel. I wanted to buy one as those from Polish shop in Swindon are not excellent, but then I thought, the fridge is disconnected, we’re not going to eat it quickly enough. It’s just over a week since I…

Hindsight
I sometimes think I didn’t deal with my mum very well when she was staying with me. Possibly I should have asked the doctor for some antidepressants for her, but I didn’t really know how to direct the attention to her mental health. She has some issues with medication, almost everything seems to make her…
