Hello again
I wish people would write some good comments. But it is OK. I don't waste my head space on the negative. Especially when I have to be constantly repeating myself.
I am told that I am a bully. If you call standing up for my mother's rights and making sure she has the best care possible. That staff are not abusing her.
Then sure I am a bully. I have stated over and over again. That I will do whatever it takes to make sure my mother is looked after properly and is not abused.
If I have to ask twice concerning an issue, I will take action. I have been nice and letting things go by. Asking over and over about something.
Well, no more. Twice is my limit now. If I have to ask twice and something is not done about it, I will take action and do whatever it takes to solve the issue.
Twice has always been my limit, not just concerning mom, but in all areas of my life. I will not stand for incompetence..
Her is an example of something that should not even be an issue. It is just laziness, pure and simple. when they make mom's bed in the morning, they are constantly putting the sheet on backwards. There is a top and there is a bottom.
I put lotion all over my mother's legs and it gets on the top sheet. Now putting the sheet on incorrectly, will cause lotion to get into mom's eye's. And it is bad enough that they don't seem to understand when I say the lights bother my mother's eye's, this is why I purchased glasses for mom. And when I arrive, mom is not wearing them, and her chair is tilted up towards the lights.
These are a few examples of things that get on my nerves. Do something right or don't do it at all. Plain and simple.
Now tonight mom was over tired, and still awake when it was time for me to leave. It felt so bad that I had to leave. I stayed up until the very last minute. And this caused me to get home at 11 pm. I am OK with this. I tried to stay as long as I could.
Mom ate very well. But she shed a tear at dinner tonight and saying that she was a baby. I reassured mom that she is not a baby and these things happen. That I know she didn't want a stroke to take her speech away or the use of her left arm. But it did. I said I am here to look after her and I enjoy every minute of it. It is not a problem for me at all. I will be your voice and I will be your left arm.
What a pair. mom's left arm doesn't work and my right arm is not working properly. Together we have one set of arms that work. So I understand where she is coming from.
Need to go now. I am very tried today and I have no idea why. OK maybe it is the stress of not being able to find a place..
I need to be out of here by the end of September. The landlord is renovating down here. He gave me plenty of notice.
Well thanks
GOD bless and good night

Oh yea, I complain to much. Oh well. No one wrote to me about this. It is just me stating a fact.
