I've made some progress on paperwork for a facility, yet with life and work its so hard to get everything done. I hope to get the doctors appointment in to get the medicaid long term application filled out this week. I have left messages for her caseworker, but as with everything, its a waiting game.
Jimmy pointed out that it really is like having a 2 or 3 year old again. Only you cant teach her. So the problems are just that, problems, with no resolution to them.
She was sick last week, and I was out of town. She had a psych appointment that morning, but was too sick to go so I had to reschedule it. I like the doctor, but one of the problems with seeing a county doc is well, they are booked 3 months in advance. so she cant get another one till July.
I had to catch a plane to go to Denver, so J had to take her to the nurse prac to get her checked out. Sinus infection was all, but infections can really cause havoc in this disease. She was totally out of it for several days. Still not back to "normal" from it and its been over a week. Bless him, she had an accident at the doctors office, but at least she had depends on. He really is an awesome husband.
Yesterday she was finally able to go back to clubhouse, and seemed to enjoy it. Today I woke her up to get ready and she had two depends on. It made me chuckle, bless her she is trying. But you have to take the used one off, I told her. Oh she said. So we are cleaned up again and she went to put her bra on, but she already had her shirt on. So guess what? yep, over the top. This is a sign of a new stage, and it while it breaks my heart, I under stand what Angie Dickenson said on CNN the other night...you pray that its fast...so they dont have to be like this long. :(
