Hello again
I have not written anything on his Blog, as it states I have had a very stressful weekend. I tell you about it in a minute.
First if anyone wants to know. It was a sprained finger and hand that is all it was. Not broken.
Mom, Mary, is doing fine. Healthy and I guess happy. Again for someone in her position. Not being able to do anything. It really guilts me every time I see her. That I haven't been able to take her outside. I travel so much. It seems that no matter how early I leave, I always get their at the same time. If it is not one thing, it is another that delays me.
So mom needs to loose some weight, I have mentioned this before. I have been letting her know that we both need to loose ten pounds. Since Christmas I have been cutting down on her dinner. Slowly cutting back the portions. I just spoiled her at Christmas. So she gained some weight I knew this and the LPN and myself discussed this in January. We are working on it. It doesn't take long to gain weight, yet it sure takes a long time to loose it. Doesn't it!
Just to point this out, what the staff are like, excuse me, some of the staff are like. One of the staff members at Al Hogg called the PGT and told them about my supplementing mom's dinners with home cooked meals. I am not supplementing mom's served diners. I am giving mom a home cooked meal. I tend to bring mom allot of vegetarian dinners, and mom likes to have some meat with her meals, so I take the meat portion from the tray and leave the rest.Telling the PGT that mom has gained weight and other health issues. Again it was already discussed and it is being taken care of.
Now mom ate well over the weekend, Not to much of course She enjoyed the spa treatments greatly. Was very relaxed. I sang as much as I could to her. I have a sore throat now. All good. And tonight mom was singing along with the music. As was I.
Now what happened to cause me to have a stressful weekend was on Friday, 5:30 pm after the case manager finished working at the PGT, she sends me an email telling me that Janet Bowers the OT Occupational therapist at Al Hogg is going to be buying adaptive clothing from now on. That the PGT is not going to assist me with funds to have the nightgowns I purchased with my own funds adapted. And no undershirts either. So I have nightgowns that, for now, I can't do anything with. I will have to find some cash to get them altered.
I found it cowardly that this case manager at the PGT would send the email at that time, not even giving me the opportunity to respond to it or her.
First of all I make the decisions on what mom wears and doesn't wear. Janet Bowers at Al Hogg does not have Commitee of person. So she can't make any decisions like this without asking me first. Janet thinks because the PGT told her she could that it is all okay. NOT! The PGT does not have the power to tell Janet this. The PGT only can agree to pay for the clothing. That is it.
I replied that mom has a closet full of clothing that can be adapted. Check it out, the adaptive clothing that is sold are the ugliest things anyone has seen. Made of crap, nothing natural about them. And mom is use to wearing clothing made of natural fabrics.
I have even told the PGT that from now on I am going to try to purchase the clothing for mom myself. I will find a way.
I have been extremely pissed off all weekend long. So I wrote Janet a cease and desist order, spelling out exactly what is going to be done. That the PGT can't make these decisions and you will not be purchasing any and all clothing for my mother.
It says more than this. Allot more. This women Janet is nothing but obstinate and rude. Each meeting with her is a waste of my time. I did mention her before. it is the same women who didn't care that the staff tore my mother's nightgowns. .
So I was busy writing a Cease and Desist Order for Janet Bowers and any other staff member who would or might make these decisions. I finished it and saved it to draft. I kept looking at the order and email, but not certain I should send it. It wasn't until 2 am that I decided that I have to send it otherwise Janet will take future liberties that are hers not to make.
I didn't just send it to Janet, I sent it to the manager, the director, a women at the complaint office, 2 reporter at the Vancouver Sun and Pivot Legal Society. I think that is it. I did this to stop Janet from saying she didn't receive it. The cease and desist order was in the body of the email. So I copied and pasted the order into my word processor, than printed out a half dozen of the orders to hand deliver to each of the recipients at Al Hogg. Then I will mail the order to the other recipients at the new paper and the legal society. This I did to cover my own bottom. To say to a judge if I decide to take civil action against Janet Bowers OT at Al Hogg. If she does purchase any of the clothing.
I took the letters with me today, but I missed a bus, I watched it pull out as the train was pulling into the station. I needed to be their before 4 pm. I would of been but I had to wait until the next bus So when I arrived at Al Hogg all were gone for the day.
This is going to take along time to go through. So I will have to do this over the next few days. Or I should just paste the emails up on here. Including the email from the PGT,
So for today I will have to let you all go. I was up late contemplating whether to send the email or not.
GOD bless and good night.
Please pray that I can find a place out their in White Rock. Especially now that this is going on. I need to be their during the day to catch this person to stop them from doing anything I disagree with
