The Heartache
Who do you see
After my mummy forgot who daddy was we still lived a
happy life, interrupted by mummy’s change in moods.
Sometimes she would get really scared of daddy and
think he was a stranger in the house. Even when they
were out somewhere like shopping, my mummy would
often try to run away or hide. It could be very funny but
also quite worrying, so we always had to be very careful.
Other times mummy would get very angry at daddy and
shout or try to hit him. Sometimes it was hard for daddy
to be calm and he would cry. I was sad for my mummy
and daddy.
