I deeply appreciate all your support during this very difficult time. My story got so much worse this week. I went to work yesterday and when i arrived i was horrified.
I care for three children boy7 and twins of 5. One of the twins is severly disabled with complex medical needs. His mother had gone shopping on saturday whilst dad mowed the back lawn. For 2 solid hours this little angel sat in the scorching heat. He has burns all over his face and blisters the size of toonies. (which have burst). He had no medical attention and mum is convinced he is fine. I have suggested seeking medical attention but mum denies it as she feels vitamin E cream is the answer. I had to walk to the local schoool and pick up the other children where everyone that saw him said it was awful and it looked like third degree burns.
I broke my heart becuase i hate to see a child suffer in any way. This was awful. If i took him too the doctor i would jepodise my job, But if i don't he will get worse(possible infection) what can i do?
if i walk out of my job at this point i have not one cent to my name and i need to have money behind me in order to get home. I can not work for another employer unless i had an open work permit. my hands are tied and it is killing me.

i wish i could win the lotary right now.. I don't need a big win only enough to get me home and help me out for a while.

I satrted here with nothing and i know i will do it again but i feel for my kids. I know they will be happier in the UK.

thanks for the support.

I have spoken to friends back home and i have a place to stay until i get on my feet. I would like to send a few boxes back to the uk. I am not sure what the cost would be. I came here with 30 boxes so i would like to probably send 40 if i could. That way i dont have to completly start over. Only need to buy furniture etc.Does anyone have a clue about the cost of this?
If i have to leave with just a suitcase i will do so.

I am already putting out the feelers for jobs back home. I really want to continue to work with special needs children or adults. I know this is where i am meant to be.
Sent many emails to friends and asked them to check things out for me. I know that friends will rally around for me. I don't think you realise how much i appreciate this support. It truly is a lifeline right now and the place i am turning for all advice.

thank you so much guys.
