For caregivers as well Say hello to her, will ya? Thx. "The world will soon wake up to the reality that everyone is broke and can collect nothing from the bankrupt, who are owed unlimited amounts by the insolvent, who are attempting to make late payments on a bank holiday in the wrong country, with an unacceptable currency, against defaulted collateral, of which nobody is sure who holds title." Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity. The woman who is not pursued sets up the doctrine that pursuit is offensive to her sex, and wants to make it a felony. No genuinely attractive woman has any such desire. - H.L. Mencken, In Defense Of Women |

For caregivers as well Not sure if I'll be able to see her personally, but I will tell her son. I msged him earlier asking what's new.. His msgs were a bit confusing but it seems that he had brought her back home, but now needs to bring her back, and something about her being upset with him. When I recieve clarification I will report back. You all are the best. |

For caregivers as well OK so what it is is that she could go home, and I suppose wants to, but her son needs to have 24 hour care in place for her, which is difficult. She was upset with him because he couldn't take her home... She must really want out of there. He says it's been a real struggle...I feel so horrible. He will update me a bit later. |

I'm not sure if she's doing better and that's why she can go home (with the 24 hour care)..or if it's turning for the worse. The fact that he said she spoke to him (although she was upset) does sound like an improvement, since she was not speaking last I heard. Hard to tell... |

For caregivers as well What a situation - so hard on everyone in the family. I don't understand/haven't figured out why it's so much more expensive to have home health 24 hours than being in a hospital? I hope with all my heart that something works out. :birdystones: |

For caregivers as well [link to newoldage.blogs.nytimes.com] Moreover, Dr. Aragon pointed out, nursing homes often have financial incentives to keep re-hospitalizing patients. After three days in a hospital, the skilled-nursing facility benefit starts anew, and it reimburses at a higher level than Medicaid, which pays for most nursing home care. |
