Jo,

I know how hard it must be with having all your family in the UK.

Hope things start to get better for you soon.
If you ever want to talk please feel free to email.

Both ours live in the UK and somedays i wish they where here to help.
But that was before MIL came not long after i had Alexander and it drove me mad as she was no real help at all. I was looking after three adults. one 2 year old and a newborn baby.
