Oh Diana I am so sorry I do hope you do what has been advised by the people here I agree Bryan the Police is the best option as its a longtime now. I do hope all goes well Diana and things improve very soon for you. I really do not know what else to say. Love Pat x

Diana, I can't give you any different advice, but I do hope that you have some support for yourself at the moment too, some friends nearby to help you. You know of course that you have us all here too. Hope there will be some positive news soon hun. Maz. XXXX

Maz thanks..... my inner circle from on and off the boards have been a great support and knowing that you lot are around really helps...... thanks guys and i hope you all understand my absenses!! And no me not just a drama queen as some people have suggested..... I am giggling now!!

Diana Phone police as others have said. She will no doubt be fine, but to be on the safe side phone. I am not spilling beans, but I have been there, done it...and got the T-shirt. . Update.. as in your shoes, may I add. Marion

Dear Diana, There is nothing else I can add to what has already been said, just to say I'm thinking of you & sending you hugs. Vivienne

Diana sweetie, i could never see you as a drama queen - a sparkly pink diva maybe :-) Take care, things will be ok Sheila xx

Diana - do phone the police - I am sure they will still do what they can, after all it isn't her ringing with abusive calls, it's you worried about her whereabouts and well being. I think it is better than one of us just driving past the house altho if I can do anything I will, of course. Trouble is I am trying to fit in a lot of things this week and next as going away on 8th, near to Yarmouth, so that will be a bit late anyway. I really think to set everyone's mind at rest, you need to involve the police and maybe the press if she does not appear - they often put bits in our local papers to say that such and such a person is missing - please look out for them. I do hope you manage to get things sorted out for your dad's care in the meantime - it must be so hard for you to have to take on such a responsibility. Will be thinking of you and hope everything works out. Get in touch if you think I can help, as I am so close to Yarmouth. Take care, Liz

someone from the boards has offered to drive round in the morning and ask a neighbour to call me..... Me won't name names but you know who you are and I so owe you one!! Thank you so so much!! xx

Im so pleased some one is able to help and i do hope it will. DQ?? No, a daughter who is worried! xx

Diana, I think I understand some of your concern, as my own mother was in a very similar position to how you've described your father at present. It's not an easy task to deal with those problems, and you need to speak to his GP first and ask to be put in touch with Social Services. A proper referral from your GP will get much quicker results. The GP will also be able to advise on how you can go about helping your Mother, as well as seeing that your own health is taken care of. You ALL need help from someone who understands the full picture, including all the implications for the future, as well as the practical side of now. Please don't be a heroine and try to cope with this all by yourself. You'll end up a nervous wreck, and you don't need that. You owe it to yourself as much as to your parents to take care of yourself as well. Best of luck, Love, CB >|< XX

well said CB, why can't i put my thoughts into words like that. diana,lots of us care about you....don't forget it! bryan xxx.

Hi Diana, I am sorry to hear this. I have no words of advice, but just want you to know that I am thinking of you. (((hugs))) Jill xxxx

Bryan, It takes years of practice to be as big a windbag as me! ;>) CB >|< X

Hugs for you Diana....XX BC

Cannot offer any advice BUT Will give you a MASSIVE hug when I next see you and am always here for you! love becx

Diana All I can do is send you a huge hug ((((((((HUG)))))))) Love Jan xx

Diana I'm so sorry. There's nothing I can say to help and to be honest I don't know what to say, but I hope you find your mum soon. Gawd what a worry !!!! You poor love! Bev x

Oh Diana you poor thing - I'm so sorry. Can't offer help or advice, just (((HUGS))) Take care sweetie - home she's found safely soon. Anne xXx

Hi Diana, Just to echo what CB has said. Social services can arrange a care package for your father and there is help available if you need it - but you have to push. I hope your manage to find your mum. Gwynne

Morning Diana, so sorry to hear of this, what a HUGE worry, am thinking of you, and hope your Mum is found quickly, take good care there :)
