Got a problem and just don't know what to do about it.
As I have said in many threads, I have a daughter, disabled, medical conditions and learning difficulties. She lives with her beloved cat on her own since her husband died four years ago. Care comes in three times a day and are smashing.
She doesn't really have any friends and doesn't socialise much.
My problem is Christmas, she won't come to us even bringing the cat and I am reluctant to go to her house for Christmas as she just will not have the heating on. She can certainly afford it so that is not the reason. I, and others cannot get a sensible answer from her about the heating and today when we visited it was cold, so goodness knows what it will be like at Christmas. I have looked at going out for Christmas Day Lunch but it would mean travelling on after I have arrived at her house, 54 miles cross country and then have to get home afterwards. All to much. She said she will have Christmas on her own and doesn't care. Other years she has had different carers and they either took her out to lunch with a few others or she went to their centre. But that has all gone now.
I will feel so guilty and upset on Christmas Day thinking of her on her own in the cold house, even if its choice. Any suggestions advice.
