Usually #caregiving falls to the daughter. "Sitting in that small room, I realised then that life had shifted. My #ageing father wouldn’t be able to help much & my older brother is estranged... I would be doing this solo, a single woman w no partner to turn to, caring for [my mother]." #disability

Photograph taken of a statue I've looked at so many times. Felt like I needed a new angle so crouched down and looked up to see the weathering on the stone from underneath. Only when I got home and looked at the image on the big screen did I see the appendage (am being polite). Let's see if this gets past the moderator. Image shows a clear blue sky behind a statue which was playing an instrument when it was first carved. Its arms are empty these days. The stone is weathered and marked with cracks ams runs. Although from this angle, most of the statute's manhood is hidden by his legs, the end isn't 🙈. Either way, it's cheeky and it made me laugh a lot when I saw what I'd done. I am definitely the fool in this scenario!

My Dad is in a Viewpoint Care Home.
It’s a “not for profit” organisation and although it wasn’t the only reason why we chose that particular home for him, it was a factor.
Viewpoint is a housing association, regulated by the charity regulator OSCR.
