Notice:-

 

For anybody that might be interested I just want to let you

know that we have returned home from the "assisted living facility"

due to the fact that my wife needs 24/7 Nursing Care which was

not available there.

 

Actually the our Dr. advised that we return home and "spend the

days you have(???) there.

 

Sorry about the sad story but just wanted to vent a little.

Sgt Leo,

 

Prayed for you & your wife at a Memorial Day Mass for Veterans and their families.

What you are going through must be beyond endurance. My heart goes out to you both.

My friend Julie's mother had ALS and they had a signal between them of making circles in the air with a finger - it meant: "Circling the Airport waiting for a runway to open."

I'll keep praying that the Lord will open up a runway Home for her.

Dear Sarge:

 

Exasperating n'est pas? You take your dear wife for care, and she doesn't get it? What is wrong with that scenario.

 

I know you will appreciate this story, and I can see you shaking your head already.

 

Last year we moved Lee's mother from an assisted living facility down state to one closer to us up north. That facility was great, and had two levels of care; basic assisted living with your own apartments (or shared), then the advanced care for severe cases of dementia etc. Lee's mom's Alzheimers was advancing, and she would need more care than when she initially moved into the facility. But, we didn't want her to remain there for two reasons - 1)Several of us were now living up north, and 2)The cost of moving her from one level to the next level was astounding. It was going to wind up being almost 8,000.00 per month! :wacko: OUCH!

 

So we looked around near us and finally found a place very close, which was suitable and would offer full-time assistance. Long story short; she is still there, but we almost had to find another facility. WHY? Because one of the health care professionals informed us that mom slapped someone, and they didn't deal with that kind of behavior. Told us we may have to move her to a different care center! WHAT???

 

This place handles full-blown alz and dementia patients. We toured the facility, talked with various care-takers, etc., etc., then we are told this. We were furious as you can well imagine. Of course we set up a meeting and told them what the one gal had stated to us. We said mom would not be moved again, and she was remaining with them until the end. Explained that mom had never done anything like that before, but heck she has Alz and you never know what they will do from one day to the next. Hey deal with it; ain't that supposed to be what you do? We were frustrated.

 

In the long run it worked out for us, but there were several weeks of touch and go. :angry: Utter stupidity!

 

My thoughts and prayers are with you as always. I wish I could fly down and assist, but alas I cannot. So instead I send my love and many hugs your way.
