Oh Zen, may your manager get hit on the head by the clue fairy.
askye, I hope your meds and your physical and mental health needs get straightened out to the point everybody's on point with what works, what doesn't, and how you can manage.
Francesca Ruth already has a handle on how to get what she wants. You guys better be ready!
Epic, I am so sorry about the circumstances, and I wish your brother had a different grasp of reality and could provide some support for you. As others have said, we're here for you, and any actual concrete help we can be, please ask, because we'd love to provide it. But you have all our emotional backup. Courage and enduring strength to you, for getting through this.
She also just managed to pull off a glove with her mouth. I think she is already way too smart for us.
Buffista babies/kids are going to take over the world!!!
And make it a better more awesome place.
Meanwhile, both my children appear to have forgotten how to sleep.
And, because it deserves a separate post: Epic, I'm so sorry for the news about your mom. May her remaining time be peaceful for her and as easy as possible on you. Sending you strength and love.
Epic, love, ma , peace headed your way
yay for babies figuring out the wold
I am so sorry, Epic. My mom lost her words too, so I know what that's like. I have many thoughts about your brother, but others here have said most of it already, and in nicer words than I would have used. He has his own journey to walk, and he is choosing to go it alone, but you don't have to go it alone too because you have your people. May you find the strength to get through this, and try to be kind to yourself as you do. Eat well, sleep when you can.
ON a practical note, grill the hospital social worker while you are there about home health care options. Many services send CNAs that you can interview for hire. If you can afford it, try to hire more care than you think you need so that you have time to take care of your needs and work too.
Every day this week I have been woken up by one doctor or another at 4 or 5 AM. Now it is finally the day we're supposed to be going home and a doctor from my office finally came to discharge me, but we're still waiting for ltc' doctor's office to discharge her.
I hope you and your family are home now, sj.
