Hi Grandy
Thank you for coming by. Because it's public housing I have to inform Housing who sent a plumber. Turns out there are old bricks under the lawn for storm water but it's not coping after all the rain so there is nothing the plumber can do.
It's so bad it's hard to get to my car without sliding over. Water is pouring down the yard into the road and more rain is forecast all next week. It's dangerous for me to try to walk from the front porch to the car but of course I have to to go anywhere!
He said they had given Housing a quote on fixing this and the leaking gutters a couple of years ago but nothing has been done.
On top of that, Vision Australia in O town is not organising an Occupational therapist to come to assess the house. They said I'll just have to find a bulk billing eye specialist to get them an updated report and for that I'd have to go to Sydney where I'd have to stay overnight. I wonder how they think I can afford all that.
So I will have to go back to my GP and see if she can organise for an OT to come.
I feel that nothing will be done until I have an accident. It's dreadful. My GP wrote to Housing and told them I need to be moved urgently as I will have a fall, but they have said they won't do this without an OT report.
I'm very unhappy with Vision Australia and talked to an old friend in coastal town whose mother was blind for the last few years of her life and my friend said she found Vision Australia useless and they gave her mother no help either.
I'm so tired of worrying about this house and now even stepping foot out the door is dangerous! Good grief.
Thank you for popping by here Grandy!
