Hi Mummycrow

I am sorry to read you’re having such a difficult time at the moment. I’m sure some of the other users will be a long soon to offer you their thoughts and experiences.  In the mean time you might find it helpful to talk through how you are feeling with a member of staff on the helpline.  They are there to listen to your concerns and will offer you emotional support and practical information. The number to call is 0808 800 6000 and lines are open Monday to Friday 9 to 5pm and Saturday 10 to 2pm.
