None of this (the cost of living charges) is helped by the fact that my bedroom wall had to be rebuilt last year due to leaks everywhere. But now I have black mould on the walls so can no longer sleep in there, have to sleep on the couch in the front room.

This is not how I envisaged the end of my life! No heating, constant power cuts, and damp!

Oh well.

@Roary Thank you. I didn't intend my toots as a 'poor me' thing, honestly. Just really saying how these crazy prices really do affect so many people. xx

@Florence It shouldn’t be like this. I’m a Brit, been in USA since the eighties. I remember the power cuts of the seventies. Eating dinner by candlelight. I hope something changes and it gets better.

@Roary I'm old enough to remember them too. You honestly wouldn't recognise the UK. I'm a dual-national (US/UK) and I am so saddened by what is happening. People literally starving to death.

@Florence Don’t they have food banks to help? So horrifying. Sucks here too. I would never have imagined the world becoming like this.

@Roary Yes, but they don't do medical diets. I'm on a pancreatic diet and also mostly use parenteral nutrition, goes through a tube.

@Florence I hope it gets better for you and others soon. 💜
