I just wanted to say "Thank You" to AgingCare.com and it's members, followers and postings. Thanks to you I learned so much concerning Dementia, APS, Medicade, POA, MED POA and what turned out to be our saving grace was learning about a Social Admit with Phyc Eval. (Thank God we found a great hospital that took the time to care and listen) After 8 years of remote care-giving, I am slowly able to heal. Mom is finally in Memory Care where she is getting the help she truly needs. I love her very much. I will visit, day trip, call and continue to be there for her as this terrible disease lives on and I will continue to learn from this site.
God Bless and Thanks again, Gizmo

I spent a grueling two hours at my mom's MC place yesterday helping her hospice nurse dress her wounds (many of them), and by the time I left, there were four of us helping and Mom was hysterical. That's become the norm in these waning days of her life, and I never cease to be amazed at the patience and kindness of the staff. I told them so, too, so be sure to let those angels know how much you appreciate them.
