Thank you all for the advice and kind words yesterday.

Ended up calling them last night. I don't think I'm going to 'get my way' here with an assessment.

Speaking to her, she's refusing to eat the soup I did for her because I'm pushing for this assessment. She tried to make her own but the way she does it isn't balanced. Might have been spite, or she's trying to prove she doesn't need to get checked out or both.

Their 8 days away without proper nutrition has done a number on her mind (again).

So going to have to capitulate and just accept it isn't going to happen.

Sort of had a feeling this might backfire. Still think it's the correct thing to do though but I'm backing off.

No point feeling bad about it, was worth a go. Heading back to melbs tm to try and pick up the pieces.
