[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 108346, member: 2211"] Lisa, yes, I obviously have no choice but to let them handle this. And it's not like they won't handle it well, it's just that I was advised by my DR and a nursing home administrator to have my mother seen by a gerontologist specifically because mom is having such horrible memory losses. A gerontologist will be able to asses her full care (with her other doctors input) to see if there is a medicinal issue, or if it's simply old age, Know what I mean?? Well, none of my sisters agree with me and think her general practitioner can handle this but he's the dope who has her on all sorts of medications, many of which cause dementia with long term use. I wanted to be there so that I could get a referral for mom to see a gerontologist from her GP since I know that my sisters won't ask for one. I did insist with my WV sister so maybe she will. And although I probably wouldn't have been able to go anyway, that still does not excuse the fact the my loco sister and I AGREED that if one of us was going to PA, we'd let the other know so that if she wanted to go along we could go together. A phone call would have been nice is all. Besides, none of her c.r.a.ppy attitide has nothing to do with mom at all. It has to do with her. My counselor told me a long time ago that my sister has narcissistic personality disorder. She is paranoid, thinks people talk about her behind her back, she gets furious if any of her kids talk to me or my other sisters without her knowledge (her kids are 19,22,26). My sister is truly nuts and the things my nephew has been telling me about her behavior lately make me wonder if we won't be having a little meeting about where to place her soon! Forgive me, I am just so aggravated by her and this whole mess. Thanks for the hugs~ [/QUOTE]
