Re:
There you have it, Kabu. First and foremost, though, mum's care costs will come first. My ill sister is quite a lot better today thank you.

Re:
It's tough for my younger sister, sam. We try to understand but she keeps cutting herself off and won't talk to us.

Re:
Next year, CCT (the £200). I have missed the October deadline for paper returns for 2015-2016 so have to do it online... when no one else needs me to be somewhere - so in between everything else. And you are right, there will be some nursing fees paid for her (not all that much but it helps). As for the black ice... I'm looking forward to a bit of snow, brings out the kid in me - but thanks for the reminder xx

At least there's another person now in your mother's life that will help it.

Well you seem to have done all you can M. I am glad Mum s going into a paid home you will probably be subsidized to a certain amount as I know my freind's Dad is. Can't you knock the cost of the boiler off your tax as extra expenses, it is tragic really folk with money can save a fortune using accountants . I would try to think of other things you have had to spend if you are borderline. Tell me about money sadly it brings out the worst in folk. One more thing watch out for black ice on the road.

probably younger sis who really wouldn't have time to think actually, was sort of hoping that your Mum's house may give her a few bob to ease her difficulties.
I am so sorry for your sick sister and it seems as though there is so much for you to need to get done. poor love. You will get there though.
