It’s been a challenging day @Shaz51 but I have gotten through and that’s all that matters.
Sorry for my ignorance but things sound quite challenging with your mum.

Yes @Captain24
Mum has been in hospital with lots of pain , they did a xray and she has broken her right hip somehow and now needs surgery to fix it
She is 91 and broke her left hip 3 years ago

I’m so sorry to hear that @Shaz51
All the best for you and your mum
My nan shattered hers about 5yrs ago and needed a replacement at 87.

Precisely @Shaz51 . Not many people know how 'fragile' Mr Shaz's MH is. I guess you have yourself and Mr Shaz to consider.
There is only so much care you can offer your mum at this time, as well as working on top of that.
Please know whatever you chose, we will support you. You always have everyone's best interest at heart - now it's your turn.
Hugs, tyme

Thanks @hanami @Bow @FloatingFeather
No there's no-one here in person, to talk with or to feel some emotional support from.
Just a few very brief phone conversations, where I was told I should not feel stressed & that "it's nothing to lose sleep over".
Even though I have lost a lot of sleep, these past few nights.
I just spent 3 to 4 hours mostly on hold this afternoon - Attempting to gain some brief Legal Advice.
Legal Aid said they Don't Deal with Divorce- After having me on Hold for over 1 Hour.
So I'm giving up for now, as it's Bedtime now - I get up for Work at 4.00am tomorrow morning.
Thanks.
Much appreciated.
Good night.

I hear you @Adge .
For tonight, I hope you have a good sleep, and I look forward to having a cuppa with you tomorrow. We can chat more then.
Let's focus on getting to sleep tonight. That can be our achievable goal for tonight 🙂
I'll tag you tomorrow for a cuppa in the evening,

Oh @Shaz51
I'm so sorry you feel alone with no support. Hoping things pick up for you soon.
Sending hugs
