Hello again
If you had two years to live. What would you do with the rest of your life? A bucket list for mom.
Now it is almost two weeks and mom's new roommate still has not had her area decorated and I have not seen anyone come to see her. This is sad, to say the least.
And I can't even get mom's photo's from the PGT. They still refuse to release them to me.
And now, the supervisor, Leanne Dospital and Stephen Flynn, are not releasing funds for me to get mom's cosmetics that she needs.
This spa treatment, I have been doing this for 4 years now, and daily. I find the best deals on the products. I write Bio Therm all the time. Sometimes they send me product. I push their products to the staff. Who keep saying that mom has the best skin they have seen and what are you using on her. This is in front of mom, And mom just lays back and smiles.
I let them try a little bit of it. So I think Bio Therm should be sending me samples to hand out. I will have to write them again.
But mom is out of some of her products and the PGT is not releasing funds to replenish them.
Stephen Flynn and his supervisor Leanne Dospital. They really don't like it when I mention their names on this blog.
So mom, is upset still. She tells me that my sister has taken some of her clothing again. A shirt that I left out for her one night, two weeks ago, just disappeared. I bought another one, exactly the same and it has not been seen since I brought it to her. I will give it another day, to see if it is still being labeled.
I am really depressed lately. And everyone is telling me I look tired. Bags under my eyes. Dark circles. I still have not paid the balance of last months rent. And I have no way of getting money to do this.
But I have been paying an extra $15.00 a month for rent for the two years I have lived here. That was to help pay for extra cable channels. But that never happened. And I find out that my roommates pay $500.00 a month for their share of the rent. And I pay $565.00 a month. Interesting isn't it. But the landlord seems to forget that I pay this extra amount. I will be letting them know tomorrow.
Now I did file my income taxes for the last few years, yesterday. And dropped it off after visiting mom. That is a few years worth of HST payments. Which works out to a decent amount. But it won't be done for a month or two.
I did tell the landlord that I will pay them when I receive it. I shouldn't have to, since I have been paying the extra every month.
Mom is not eating properly, and the food is not that good. I miss bringing her home cooked meals. This is one thing y'all can bring me or send me. No don't send food.
I am trying to get mom outside. Today and yesterday I got her out for a little while. She is not use to the sun yet. But this is why I have started this campaign to raise funds to purchase a van equipped with a wheel chair ramp.

I had trouble verifying my PayPal account. So no money could be collected. Or nobody has donated yet. I don't know. You can't donate, if I don't have a valid PayPal account. So I opened up another bank account, just for this, yesterday. And it is going to take several days to get this verified. A few steps to follow.
I guess I should of thought of this before going live with this campaign. I would of been a good idea to do this. I did under estimate the actual cost of the van with the lift installed.
I have been writing various news papers and letting them know about this campaign. This is important to mom. To get her out and see the sites that she has not seen in a while. OK many years. The van that I was using, was given to my sister to take mom out and about. But that never happened, as I said it wouldn't. So mom is inside most of the time. And when my sister does visit, she doesn't take mom outside. Come on now.
I miss taking mom out and about. This actually really gets me very upset.
I have to go now.
I need to be their for mom. She counts on me. Yes she gets upset. I don't blame her.
This is the life of our seniors. Forgotten. And left alone.
GOD bless and good night
