Bobbie girlfriend you are the glu that keep us stuck togetner--Miz do not worry about the house they are more concerned about her care which we know is the best-we had a nurse complain about my housekeeping and sent in a social worker that liked us and said it was a big impeovement from a year ago and that shut her up for good.
Guys, when I said that my mother was suspected to be a Mafia boss I was not very far from truth... She is being investigated by a District Attorney! Fun, isn't it? My cousin from Naples went there (Public Prosecutor's Office) and he did not know anything, he just knew that the account will continue to be frozen, and he has an appointment next week with the District Attorney to know what my mother is accused about. He told me that the times to get out of this situation will be necessary very long! Shit, shit, shit. What did that woman do? Did she lead a double life? Seriously, if they won't say anything to my cousin next week and they'll want to see us, I will go there (Naples) with my mother and a big box of documents concerning her health, our financial situation and so on and I hope that the DA is not an asshole. Meanwhile the only positive thing is that my family is helping me a lot - cousins, uncles and so on - and my brother and sister in law call me 1000 times a day. This thing has improved my mood a lot, because I can't deny that I am glad I am not alone in dealing with this mess - which is a huge mess. Yes, Bobbie, it is retroactive - if the situation will be cleared in 6 months, let's say, they will have to give me back all the money. The question is that I'll have to survive these (theoretical) 6 months (which could be 6 years) . I shall have to make debts, debts, debts with all the family, which I am not happy about, and work even more than I do now, to be as independent as possible. I'll keep you posted... A funny thing happened this morning. Daniela (helper) and I are spending every morning in offices, in order to do everything is necessary to fight against this mess. This morning we were in a hurry because we had 100 things to do, so we put on the first thing we found in the closet, we did not comb our hair, we seemed two witches. My mother was perfect. Perfectly combed, sunglasses, lipstick, nice jacket.... When Daniela's husband saw this incredible group, he said his wife. "Look at yourself and Rossella, you are terrible. Look at Gabriella (my mother), she is all tidy and cute!" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My great-Grandfather was Italian, his Mother was from Naples. He used to say you never joke about the Mafia...I hope what ever it is it is old news and goes away soon. It wasn't your life! It still isn't..I know they don't even comb yer hair thing..I used to be fussier now some days I just don't care.
Ramp progress...well, lets say it is framed so well it will be here for the next ice age. but it still has no platform ON IT! I think that is coming, They date it was supposed to be done just keeps moving back...When it is done it is done I guess...
Almost wish I had taken more care of my appearance when the seriously cute Chinese Delivery Boy came last night. A very welcome change from leftovers!
Bloodtest this morning see when his Dilantin is now...Could be worse could be Coumadin..Now there was a winner for most irritating fiddly prescription known to man...Grandma was on that...unreal that was...
LOL bobbie. I can't imagine having to stick my thumb up my butt. I can't even stand a small wedgie. I don't care who is behind me i have to pull it out. Or slyly stick my hand down the back of my pants and pull it out. I know, TMI.
I got home from work and the caregiver told me Mom had been having chest pains and trouble breathing and that it went away after awhile. Why did she not call me? I don't understand. I would leave work in a heartbeat for that. She says it doesn't hurt now but it's so hard to tell with her. Sometimes I'm not sure she knows she's hurting. With the dementia and all. I want to know right then and there if her chest is hurting for pete's sake. Did I mention I see stupid people? I am so tired. Gotta get to bed. God grant me the...
This morning my wife's anxiety and depression problems got the best of her which I and my son could see coming. Along with suicidal wishes, she had plans, detailed plans with such a great sense of hopelessness that no motivation existed to the contrary. So, we contacted her therapist to see her today after just seeing her Tuesday morning when we talked about how this is a tough time of year for her and how often she's been in a psych ward near Thanksgiving and so her therapist wanted to see her twice a week for three weeks and told her if the idea of seeing her mother was too much for Thanksgiving that she gave her permission to not to go. (Her mom is to mental health what Darth Vader is to Star Wars.) My wife's therapist met with her today, asked her psych to come in and the 4 of us agreed that my wife needed the psych ward for a week with all that is going on with her both physically and psychologically. This is one of the longest strands of time for her not to be hospitalized. The irony is that the last time was 32 months ago when our oldest turned 18 and now our youngest will be 18 on Monday. I'm sorry she is in the shape, but she needs to be there and like my son told her, she does not need to view this as a failure on her part. Frankly, the atmosphere of the house already feels different.
Miz, have that one here too. Mom has to ask him over and over, are you in pain Daddy/ like talking to a small child who can't tell you if they are in pain, or sick? I don't know which is worse. That or a hypochondriac who is screaming they are gonna die when nothing is wrong. It's a toss up...
RAMP update: Inspector came and said you can't use screw pull em out and use nails...and the no slip covering suggested isn't usable use something else...So more hours more money more..."it will be done ____________." Hmm Hmm what ever...
Screws trump nails on a deck for they make it easier to replace one board if they are screwed in. Also, make sure the grain of the board is not upside down or the deck will not drain well and such boards will not last long. I just learned this yesterday from our repair person.
miz ! never get tired of anyone whiney or venting out ! ur mom sounds like she had a big day , going to dentist and havin chest pains , dementia : they would say anyhing , when pa was in rehab he cried a lit wolf , my chest hurts waaaaaaaa . rush him to er o find he s ok . think he just wanted to get out of rehab . twice he did that here cuz i wasnt home , daughter called me freakin out sayin gpa s havin chest pain ! i said ahh give him nitro he be ok . i wasnt going to rush home after the first time i did , came runnin in and he s sittin like a king all happy watching tv . baby girls home he says . after that i decided i wasnt going to do that anymore . give him nitro and put him in bed and keep an eye on him ill get home when i get home . sometimes its for attentions , well when i get stressed out i do get chest pains , pop aspirain like crazy and im ok . try to control my mind that i am ok and then im fine .
crowe , home is notthe same anymore when ur love one s notthere . my house felt so empty when my husband was in hospital with open heart , never felt so all alone . health takes a long road to recovery and i wish the speedy recovery for you all .. thanksgiving is coming up , im ready to chow down ! wish someone would do the cookin . i hate cookin and then theres tons of dishes lookin at me grrr . goodnite u all xoxo
yes and no for when she's not her healthier self, the sick her is better and we are better for her going to the hospital, there have been times in the past when she was very enmeshed with her mom and her mom's mental illnesses that made it necessary to not only make some drastically radical boundaries concerning her mother but also some radical consequences like taking the boys with me for several days and nights when my wife broke an agreed upon boundary concerning her mother. In times past, when she's gone to the hospital, we have gotten a chance to unwind and rest. I use to upon my therapist then advice go take a day and a night off somewhere in a hotel just to get out of the atmosphere for some fresh air. Maybe, I that was a practice to not stop.
Jsomebody, sounds like you didnt pay your 'protection' money. (sorry, no Mafia jokes) I'm having another meltdown myself, they just keep happening and I know that they happen because something is very wrong here. I'm starting to think (again) that this isn't the right thing to be doing, but i can't stand the thought putting mom in a home just to benefit me. and round and round it goes in my head. As for the holidays, I stopped paying any attention to them years ago, just too hypocritical and false. and sad.
Ted, you are worth doing something to benefit just you, plus it will benefit her as well. This situation is obviously tearing you down via one meltdown after another until there will be no more Ted to melt down. Me thinks Ted needs to find the way out of Oz so to speak and you can.
Fight off those black holes!! thinkoftheboat! You are all coming here when it's time!!
I love you guys and want to meet each and every one whenever you can make it and spend some time on the boat.
I know each one of you is dealing with truly awful stuff in caregiving and we have all kinds of mental challenges but you want to keep reminding yourselves that it WILL END. You ALL have a life at the end of this and you must choose to keep that forefront.
Flex! I hear you. Felt the same way. Felt like I could drop dead and who would give a sh!! as long as I got frankensteined back together to make dinner or kill a spider or talk to the people in the closet.
Rossella! mom always looked great all clean and shiny with cute clothes and her hair all spiffy. I always looked like a bum.
Ted! Place your mom if you think this will kill you. I had to put my mom in respite care towards the end because I knew that I was dying. i didn't think it would be fair if i died and she would truly be f**ked without me around to care for her so I had to make that decision and of course it was a hard one. The whole story of my near collision with death and the recovery is here on this thread. The reason for this thread is that I knew I wasn't alone and that I was using humor to deal with it all and was sinking fast and needed other people in the 'same boat'. These caregivers saved my life.
It always comes back to the BOAT!!!
I am sorry that I have not been around as much and I will be around more. I was sick. I still had to work around the sick (like we all have to) but it was hard for me to get it together to write.
Cat Story: Yesterday there was a guy I call 'Hard Core' (knows EVERYTHING about diesel engines and has a Captain's ticket and loves telling you about all the information which is good for me) and his 2 daughters, 2 and 12, all came on the boat and the 12 year old babysat the 2 year old while Hard Core was in the engine room. The 2 year old had never seen a cat. I don't think the cat has ever seen a 2 year old. There was a moment when they both got close enough to figure it out and the baby grabbed the cat and the cat pulled a Houdini. Now the baby is all over the boat looking for the cat. She's a tough little girl who is pretty smart but the cat has her beat. Cat has stuffed herself into a corner shelf in the tool room and won't respond to anyone but me. I though maybe she bailed off the boat and went to check and hear this real quiet meow because she didn't want to give up her position. Able Seacat. The little girl figured out that if she didn't chase the cat, the cat would come to her. they both ended up rolling around on the rug in my room having a good time.
Hard Core and the baby just showed up to change out the oil in the generators! gotta go.
think of the boat think of the boat ., hop on a boat and go for a smooth sailing . are u still in fla ? or the other side of the world ? :-) bro said fla has another cold front comin , so sad , what happen ? fla used to be nice and warm and now its cold and warmer in indiana . i just dont get it ? heard that the world s comin to end !! hurry get on that boat !!! xoxo
I'm meeting with the caregiver's support person from the agency on aging monday. She is going to try and find some respite vouchers for me to put mom in respite care so I can take a break.
miz , glad u cked anyway , how are u today ? we missed ya lastnight on barbara b , it was fun , first time i ever got online to meow away . everybody signed off happy . we was wondering if u would get on but u didnt . sniffff . ted thats good that ure getting some help soon . it be worth it ! i have 2 daughters that helps me out when i need them . ohgosh i havent done anything but to take care of pa , i need to get off here and zoom around clean . feeling guilty , oh wait a min its friday i dont do anything on friday . NOT ...
Respite care so you can take a break sounds like a very good idea.
Linda, I am usually in with Mom until about 8:00 pm. Sometimes Hubby is on the computer so I can't get on. I will try to get on there very soon. Maybe tonight. The thing about Mom complaining about her chest hurting and not being able to breath is that she will hardly ever say she hurts anywhere. She does not want to have to go to the hospital or the doc. She seems to be doing okay this morning.
Off to work I go today. We're trying to figure out Thanksgiving and if we can get up to Hubby's family. I can only go if they change it to Friday and we can find a sitter. The last two Illinois basketball games we had to stay home cause no sitter. This is really chipping away at me. Ah well. It's what I have chosen and I would not have it any other way. So, there's that. :)
Grandpa got off to Adult day Health today. I think he felt guilty for messing up Tuesday. I would have slept but couldn't for the Ramp work. They unscrewed all the screws the inspector said to unscrew and put in nails...why I have no idea, they have to follow code period! It is stop till Monday when they are told just what the heck they will be ALLOWED to use for decking and rampage....shutting it out shutting it out.... Sort of regular stuff,then weekedn shopping then starts all over again.... I hope Crowe all is going better there and everyone is getting a good break. The 7 hours are coming to and end for ADH here and I really just need more time off ya know... I really do..... I hope everyone is doing OK and Miz did the computer start working OK? notifications?
Hi everyone! Yes still alive and kickin....okay what is the deal with these old farts not using toilet paper or flushing or wanting to take baths...seriously! Simply amazing...so old age comes and being sanitary goes out the window...ack!
he he he Bobby...about your note of us all coming aboard the boat when it's time....in lieu of the recent mishap of that cruise ship off the coast here...lol.....heck i am going to take a 3day'r once this is over...ah...a nice short trip just so someone else can clean up after me....
Well, I stood up to a customer today and it felt bad and it felt good. My boss was fine with it but if the guy complains to someone higher in the food chain, who knows. I may be without a job. The customer is a pain in the ass who was rude to me today and it got on my last nerve. He comes in all the time. Bitching, bitching, bitching. Hubby's proud of me. :)
This has been a long very low functioning day which are typical for a couple of days after my wife goes to the mental ward for a week. I really will not begin the real resting until the third day. I could not sleep until 4 am last night and got up at 8.
Crowe I am so sorry about your wife-you need to get some rest-please come here and vent like the rest of us you know your support is here waiting-just say the word Dtfey you vent also Miz-he was rude-bottom line your job will be fine they know you and you take a lot of shit you should not have to I think the holodays get a lot of people down it was easier for our parents or at least mine there was no money extra so the kids got new pj's or boots for gifts and we had a tree that we went into the woods to cut down and Christmas was the day of the birth of Jesus and Thanksgiving was a day to be thankful there were no malls and grandma lived next door what I would not give for those days no stress-we did not know the word. I myself keep things as simple as I can.

Something isn't right.
Common sense?
Sorry you must deal with this.
I haven't caught up on the last few days, but I need to vent briefly.
I FEEL LIKE NO BODY GIVES A DAMN ABOUT ME UNLESS i CAN PAY THE BILL, WIPE THEIR ASS OR COOK DINNER. Hopefully not in that order.
I'm done. I'm having a minor meltdown.
I'll write soon when I'm in a better mood. Take care my friends. I know you each have your own trials to bear.
