Single mum, kids dad died. I had brain surgery. Lancashire

[Mummyellebelly]

am a mum of 2. this year has been awful for us all. I have suffered anxiety and depression since I was 15. this year has been the worst. well since July. I had brain surgery in july and a shunt put in. I hated being in hospital away from my kids. im in recovery but my shunt isn’t working well and I need more brain surgery. last month my ex of 9 years and my kids daddy suddenly passed away. my son is finding it so hard he is 6 an autistic and he gets up during the night to check me and his sister are alive. he has night terrors and just isnt coping. I havent thought about it yet as im afraid if I do I will crack. im not strong anymore. I have spoken to the samaritans a few times and my doc and I am on pills but I just cant cope.
