18.25 – I called mum!
I got enough courage today to call my mum. I felt really strange after I last tried to speak with her and she wasn’t replying. Plus I didn’t know what to tell her about everything. Mum was really alert, which is obviously good. She wanted to know the truth about my brother so I said…

Back at the hostel
I finally know where all the people from the area spend their Sunday: in the adventure park just outside of my window! It’s very busy there today. I feel like I could do with a nap. I don’t know who is going to sort out the papers for the police for tomorrow, I don’t feel…

Feeling low
It’s almost 11am, Sunday. I am having difficulties with deciding what to do with myself. I have 4 eggs and some bread but apart from that no other food and shops are closed on Sundays. I’d really like some fruit. I need to prepare for the investigation that is tomorrow morning and I’m really dreading…

How my mum ended up living with me
Over a year ago my mum passed out and was taken to a hospital. It’s not clear who called an ambulance, social services say it was her support worker who used to come twice a week for a bit and my brother says it was him. She was in the hospital for a few days…

Enablers
I don’t even want to give details here how my brother dealt with that leak but it ended up with him being drunk again while nothing was done. He seemed to have good intentions though when he was leaving the house. I found out that there is one neighbour who regularly gives him food and…

Leak
After it’s been raining all day and all night the leak in the kitchen is pretty big and there is water on the counter. My brother is not really bothered, why would he be if he doesn’t even take rubbish or recycling out? If I try to fix it he’ll ony expect me to deal…

Wake up call
That’s what my brother needs. How this can be delivered though? I started wondering if I maybe should get someone to fix the roof when I get access to mum’s bank account. But this would mean staying here longer and I have my own life in the UK. People who specialise in treating addiction say…

Not sleeping
I got around 2h of sleep so far. I’m worried about what I’m going to find out when I go to mum’s bank. We didn’t have any control over what was happening with her money when she was in the UK, with me. What if even more got stolen? Obviously it would then be easy…

Adjusting
I think I am adjusting to being in this environment. I can see that from the fact that I started planning again about who to contact regarding my diagnostician’s communication methods. I also played some Redecor yesterday evening and may also do some today. It’s raining heavily for a few hours now and I discovered…

Failure
That’s what people in the village will say, that my mum sold that nice piece of land but my brother was drinking so she couldn’t stay in her own house. She went to stay with me for a bit, but didn’t like it and finally I had to give her away to a private care…
