FRUSTRATED
Why do our so called health professionals not advise you that you are eligible for things?? Not one of them told me I was eligible for a Care Plan/Team Care Plan. I found out thru this wonderful gr...
Yes, thanks for bringing that up @Wendy 55 and @Cate64 with regards to the domestic assistance.
I did see the link provided to the Cancer Council website for this in a previous post from one of our lovely BCNA Admin ladies.
I too have wondered if I am eligible as I work 4 days per week (with the occasional 5 thrown in).
Sometimes I find that by the time I leave home in the morning (7:30 am) and return in the evening (6 pm) that by the end of the working week, the basics like washing, ironing, shopping etc are all done but the cleaning of bathrooms, sweeping, mopping, dusting etc seem to be done but not to my usual standard as I am too exhausted (or with respect to dusting - not at all !!).
My husband - who cooks most nights of the week and is a Superhuman simply says "let me do it" but he is exhausted from his fulltime job in addition to the extra domestic stuff that I used to do and being taxi driver to our 2 teenage boys !
It would be nice to give him a reprieve from all of this as much as me if we are able to access it.
