I was a fit and well person and I nursed my mother until she passed away with lung cancer, 2 years ago.
I already suffered with bipolar and I had a mental breakdown following mums death, but despite this, my ex husband went on to get a court residency order and I have seen them 2 weekends a month and half the holidays, I've since been diagnosed with fibromyalgia (brought on by the trauma of bereavement and losing my children) so my life has ground to a massive halt.
Every single time they have to leave on a Sunday at 6pm my 7 year old son begs me to stay, my youngest son is dreadfully unhappy...aswell as suffering the loss of their grandmother AND the loss of me as I was in hospital, the father even changed their schools and they now reside in Swindon 25 miles away.
He gives me nothing to clothe or feed them.
I do it all on my own, what the government deems enough for 1 person to live on? I make it stretch across 3.
I'm at my wits end, I can't possibly begin to live my life when my children aren't able to be happy and live theirs...
I don't want a medal or a sympathy, just my children's happiness, that is all that matters and my sons are all that matter. I'm finally putting the truth out there...
thankyou for reading
