Not feeling so bouncy now......
We have a whole load of crap going on......
Back in July my 13 year old broke his thumb inexplicably. Then in September he broke his thumb on his other hand. General aches and pains all over. Doctors started to take notice. Raised calcium levels in blood. Further blood test last week and he had lost 8kg in two weeks. And he's skinny. Another blood test today and he has lost a further 4kg in six days. We're worried and putting pressure on the GP to get an urgent referral to Oncology. Oncology seem most concerned when my wife spoke to them today...we'll see what happens.
In the meantime......school started to try and apply pressure for Frankie to return to school. She had the tumour removed last year - ovarian cancer. She's nowhere near ready to go back due to mental issues going back to bullying by pupils and a Senco years ago. Back in January they had agreed that home tutoring would continue. But now, out of nowhere, they're saying she has to go back to school. We're not playing ball. She is signed off until at least December and is due to see CAMHS soon. Because we're not playing ball, last week school contacted Social Services saying kids are malnourished and we have an unsuitable home. Social Worker came to see us last week and pronounces that all is good at home and kids are obviously well cared for and loved. So pretty sure this is school lashing out at our reluctance to play their game. When we pointed out some of the stunts the school have played in the past and some of the lack of care and support they have shown, the Social Worker was disgusted at their attitude. This is going to be ongoing........
But first things first, we need to get the little one sorted. Things may start to happen rapidly from tomorrow (we'll see), so bear with me, peeps.
