My brother and I have decided Mom needs to move to an assisted living or some such thing. Beth suggested we contact A Place For Mom as a starting point. Did that. Ended up with a list of places to talk to. I had already been to two of the places. So I have now visited three more. And we are opting to stay local and go with Creekside. Local works best for visiting, outings and taking Phoebe to visit. Naturally that is assuming that the nursing assessment says it will work out.
The nurse is coming today to do the assessment. I'm apprehensive as to how that will go. Mom hasn't even really been out of her room in three days. I think she is giving up. Pat thinks she is giving up. We had dinner plans for last Friday for Pat's birthday. She wouldn't get out of bed. So we went without her. Then Pat came on Sunday to go to lunch with her and shopping for his birthday. She got dressed but wouldn't go. So he went by himself.
I gave up the apartment we had reserved and naturally the tenants just finally moved. So I have my fingers crossed that all our transitions move smoothly. But I'm not expecting it.
