Probably shouldn't reply to your cynical post Lizzie, but I admire your devotion to this lady, and I think you deserve at the very least a wage, £8 an hour is ridiculous . I imagine you don't do it for the money, but it would be nice to receive an amount an adult could live on. I agree, carers save the system a fortune. It is scandalous what they are paid .

Well done, people such as yourself seem to be invisible to the government.
