To stressfull

Hello again

I tried to get in touch with the social worker to discuss the not taking mom off the floor issue. But she wasn't available when I called and not having a working phone, she could not call me back. It is the end of the week and nothing has been resolved.

Mom needs to be outside and get fresh air. It is not only good for her health but also good for her skin. She needs vitamin D. The sun is a nice feeling on one's skin.

I will be contacting a legal expert on this matter. Even if I have to go down to their offices. A legal team dedicated to assisting someone with mom's needs.

So anyways I was not able to get Mary out today. As I arrived to late to do this. Needed to be downtown today and it took longer than expected. And I need to go back downtown again tomorrow/today.

It is mother's day this weekend and I have to figure out what to do for mom with limited funds. Actually no funds.

Mary ate most of her dinner this evening. Better today than that of yesterday. But when it is time for mom to get her nightly spa treatment, she lets me know. Mary will get aggressive.

Well no time like the present to end this. Yes it is short and this is all I can write for the night. I am expericing a serious depressive time right now.

GOD bless and good night

And the crap just continues

Hello again

How are y'all doing these days. OK

So things just seem to go from bad to worse in my life. Had to return the phone that I was borrowing. My phone is not working. No time on it or contract, and no cash to pay for anything. The charger for my phone broke. And the phone is absolutely essential to mom's life and happiness. I use it to play music for her over dinner. I place the phone on her chest while I wash her face, arms and legs. Then apply lotions. I use it to play movies on her TV. I had to get an adapter for the phone, but I need to plug my phone into a outlet to use the adapter. Can't do this now. I have to hold the cord, for the charger a certain way to get it to charge and I have to do this continuously. And it takes a very long time to charge the phone. This charger just broke yesterday, and today mom was upset that she didn't get the same music therapy she is use to and this made her angry.

Music therapy has been an essential part of her therapy. It keeps her calm and relaxed.  Without the charger, none of this can happen. The PGT does not seem to understand this. They say it is not essential to mom's health. Give me a break. It has been years and years that I have used phones for the music therapy for mom.

Then the other day I go into the drug store to pick up a prescription and they tell me I have to pay them for this. I say, I don't think so, my prescriptions are covered. This drug that I need, is to help with my vertigo/Meneires disease  Without it I get dizzy and fall over. It is the same disease that is causing me to loose my hearing. Part of the disease is vertigo, dizziness, falling and hearing loss. The problem is two weeks ago, OK 15 days ago, I picked the same drug and it was fully covered. 15 days later I need to pay for it. I don't have the money for the medication that stops me from falling over and injuring myself in the process. Just great.

I come home to make something and my stuff has been used by this alcoholic women. So what I need to eat is gone. This is my day. I go to bed tonight without anything. And this chick pays less than I do and has her boyfriend living here as well and he is a prescription drug junkie.

Anyways, I am starting to feel really depressed again. It has been a few years since I was this depressed. Not good. I am trying not to show it to mom, I don't need her feeling bad. Or thinking it has anything to do with her. It has nothing to do with her. It has everything to do with not getting the help I need. As in funds to actually live on. Funds to get hearing aids. Or enough to find a place or have my phone working.

I am disabled and have serious health issues. I really don't need this bullshit.

I need to get help so in turn I can do more for mom. Which is the only thing I want to do. Is take care of Mary.

I want to be able to be their to feed her lunch as well as dinner. And take her out and about.

Well today, I arrived early to get mom out. But I ran into the girls from the church. And we spoke for a while. I just got to mom's in time for dinner. Which she, Mary ate quite a bit of. Well she ate the crackers and dip plus allot of her smoothie. And half a papaya. Plus some Logan berries. She did manage to eat some of the dinner the home provided. But not all of it.

And it was time for her spa treatment. Got her into bed. I love it that Mary just wants to hold my hand from the time I get their until I leave. It is the best feeling in the world to me. To know that she trusts me and loves me. That Mary feels safe when I am there.

It is truly a blessed opportunity that I have been given. To look after my mother. Nothing compares and will.

GOD bless and good night

Mom is happy today

Hello again

Today before I went to see mom, I went to the police station. We talked and I found things out, on what I can do. But I will not post this information for now. I am not sure who, their reads this. And I know my sisters do or someone from their family.

I had to walk down the hill to this place and it was OK, But walking back was a slow process. I waited 10 minutes for the bus, and nothing. So I decided to walk. By the time I arrived at the top of the hill. My leg was starting to get very sore.

I grabbed something for mom for dinner, a little something. Then a treat from the bakery. I thought she would enjoy this.

I walked over to see her. Stopped by the cafeteria at the hospital to get some cold water. It was just warm and not very tasty.

It has been usually hot, breaking all sorts of records for the month of May. And walking up the hill was, well making me sweat. And the hot tea was not working.

When I got to mom's, it was to late to speak with the social worker concerning this situation. So I will call tomorrow. I will have to use Google phone, as I no longer have a phone. Remember the women asked for it back. So I still have the Google phone.

Anyways mom was really happy to see me today. We ate dinner by the balcony, she ate her sushi, and allot of her smoothie.Plus, plus, plus. Even though she did not eat her regular dinner. What she had, most of the people their do not eat.

So it is OK and I am glad I brought her something.

This women came over to speak with me, with me not mom. And mom was getting upset about this. As while I am there she does not like to be disturbed. Mary wants me to concentrate all of my attention on her.

Well I don't blame her. Mom has no one there at all during the day and sits by herself. I love that she does this. And I love the fact that she wants to hold my hand from the moment I arrive until she is falling asleep. I have no problem with this. I just have to let her know I need both hands once in awhile. She understands. It is a comfort thing and she feels very secure and safe when she holds my hand.

Mary is speaking better today and she is using her left arm more. I massage her left hand in the evening now and this pressure point helps with her arm and hand.

It is such a great feeling to see mom so relaxed by the time I leave at night. Mom has a smile on her face as she falls off to sleep every night, listening to music as she falls off to sleep. Diana Krall is what her bed time music is.

Anyways I need to go. I have to go downtown tomorrow as well as phone this women at mom's home. And going downtown takes longer to get to White Rock. It is going to be as hot tomorrow. Just finished sewing the pockets in my shorts. This is what I have and this is what I needed to do to wear shorts.

GOD bless and good night

My sisters are ??????????????

Hello again

So today, I arrive early  to take mom out for a walk. So I grab her, sign her out and let someone know I was taking Mary out for a walk.

Outside we go. I push her up a little ways and realize I have not given her a drink. We stop and I get Mary's drinks out. And proceed to give her a drink of her coke and then along comes the Rn, whom I know. And he is an OK guy and we get along.

He asked me if I know that there was a memo/order that I, Mary's son, was not to take her off the floor. In other words. I am not allowed to take Mary outside for a walk or take her anywhere.

He tells me this has been on Mary's chart since January. First I have heard of it. And I have taken Mary out many times.

The problem being that it is there to begin with. My sister's have no legal right to even say to the staff that I cannot take Mary out anywhere.

Mary's daughter's would have to go to the supreme court of British Columbia and apply for commentee of person over my mother. And I would have to agree that this is what I wish for her. And the home would have to provide me with a copy of this as well as the Supreme court of BC. I would have the opportunity to fight this application.

Well it is May and I have never received anything from the courts or the home, stating that this is what has happened.

The Rn, agreed that there is not a problem with me doing this. As I have done this on numerous occasions. And I simply stated that until I see an order I am going to do what I want with my mother. Which I will never see, as they don't have it. They simply don't have the $5000. to get this done. Or more. I have already checked it out.

I can apply for this and it wouldn't cost me anything. As I am low of income and can use this to my advantage. I can file the papers free of charge and go through the whole system free of charge. But I would need help getting this done.

I took mom out for a little walk. Oh yea, by the way. MARY WAS IN A GREAT MOOD, UNTIL THIS TOOK PLACE AND THEN HER MOOD BECAME BITTER, UPSET. And it is I, who she takes this out on. This is still OK, I understand. Mary is pissed off.

I got inside with mom and the nurse was on me about this.. I said to her as I said above. Show me the document from the Supreme court of BC stating they have Commentee of Person. She couldn't do this. I was getting really pissed off. I just stopped and told her this will be looked at on Monday.

Well on Monday I will be going to the police station and trying to have Mary's daughter's charged with abuse. And the home as well, if I can. I will also be going to the papers and the MLA. Oh wait, there is an election coming soon and we don't know if the MLA will still be in office. I will go anyways.

This is the type of low life looser's Mary's daughters are. They steal my mother's clothing and they are abusing my mother. They do nothing for her. They never take her anywhere.

I am there everyday. It has been two years since mom has been in White Rock and I have never missed a day. I have seen mom everyday for many more years than the two Mary has been in White Rock.

Once again, my days are 10 hours days. Traveling, and visiting with mom and then traveling back to Coquitlam. 7/365

Look it up on a map. Coquitlam, BC and White Rock BC. And I take a bus to White Rock everyday. And there is no direct route. Sure to drive there is about 45 minutes. Tops. Not so by transit. All good though.

What it states, I am pretty sure, I will check it out and post it. What the law states is that the person closets to the individual, who is there all the time and is the one who does most of the work and takes care of  Mary,  make the decisions on Mary's health care. And guess what I am that person.

But do not quote me on this, I need to find the publication and post it up here for all to see.

I tried, but I couldn't download it completely. The program stopped working before it finished downloading. So I downloaded the latest version of Adobe Reader and flash player.

So for the next day, until Monday, I will be waiting to see what happens.

And as of tomorrow, the individual who let me use the phone, want's it back. So I am without a phone again.  Just don't have the $60.00 to get my phone working again.

My hearing is getting worse off. This is another matter that needs to be addressed. But the evil thing, called money is standing in the way.

I did get mom calmed down, and got her into bed, without being hit to many times. I washed her face, gave her the nightly massage treatment and sang our good night song to her.

I got home last night at midnight. And didn't sleep well. Don't know how I will sleep tonight. I hope I will get a good night sleep. I am worried. I am upset and I am a little depressed.

I just need something or I mean a real miracle to happen right now. For my mother's Mary's sake and of course mine.

I just want to be slightly solvent for mom, to be their all the time.

All I want to do is look after my mother, more than I am doing now.

One more thing. The staff that heard about this tonight thinks it is disgusting. As they know what I do and are witnesses to this fact.

Pray for me, that GOD answers my prayers. OK they are financial prayers right now.

Not really. I thank GOD for healing mom every night and I thank GOD that I have this blessed opportunity to take care of my mother. Mary.

So as soon as I find the statement of the law, I will post it for all of you to see.

Anyway, time for bed.

GOD bless and good night.
