I have various people on my team supposedly helping through my depression, and other issues I have. They requested I go into a care facility for a one month stay. Which I agreed to fully expecting to return home about one month after. As soon as I mover in to the place there attitudes changed. All of a sudden I had to stay in the supported accommodation. Because I was not going to be supported in my home. Even though the support I need is available from various agencies. Around Melbourne by various counsels or privet agencies. Providing attendant care and home help. I believe I should be eligible for funding for disability. I have raised this with the people who are my advisers. But get caned every time I am not consulted. About the decision I am told just sit back do as we say. When your ready we will help more then. The plan i am not consulted on it's not working it's just stagnating. My family are no help. I am that fed up where I am. I am rely contemplating ending it all my life has no meaning in here. Just a worthless piece of meat that gets treated like a 3 year old. I know a warehouse full of stuff. That no one can now use. I cannot help anyone in here not even myself I'm not aloud.

The meeting well and truly done and dusted, the fat lady even sang to prove it. As I thought NDIS may not fund as much as I truly want but because I have made them ( NDIS) aware of certain problems that are of a disabling nature. That means I could get other things. Who knows now the plan is starting to jell it's still months away for NDIS funding. I still need money or a dam fine woman to help with a few little things whilst I do a few little things the raffle is on. Helping me is the first prize five cents a ticket, or 60 for a dollar. The Bobbie prize is you get to go to a music venue with me as well.

Evilnut I have no money My children to young to care for me my siblings thrown me to the wolves in care that don't care surrounded by people with dementia who take things move things cut me off the net I don't have dementia so I am in the wrong place all together management knew I could come and go at will. they didn't pass it down to any staff for ages now after a year staff are more aware but there are other places within the network of support homes other workers who transfer in who don't know so they have to be educated slowly politely it's not there fault so I am in the wrong type of accommodation unit for my abilities

Well people I have to say to those of you that have touched my life and helped me through the darker days. I would like to give a heart felt thank you. After much deliberation and soul searching. I feel it better I move on from here to find another place to help me on my walk. It's been a quality time in here with some good people in here to numerous to mention. At least a few of you got a laugh at my antics jokes and humor. All I can say is if there is a time, and there will be. Your only a mouse click away. For the road is long with meany a winding turn that leads us to who knows where. It could lead me to your door, on a wild and windy night. So take care out there don't let the bats out of my belfry.
