[QUOTE="Marcie Mac, post: 550713, member: 47"] Doesn't it make you start to think Terry the OMG, what am I going to do when I get up there and am in the same situation? LOL I do, and its a concern. Yesterday they were having an outing to eat and shop at Walmart, so SO took the day off (and lost a day's pay) to help them and mom was just a total PITA and nasty to him all day. Before they even left the facility, they were all in the lunch room playing a game waiting for the van, it got noisy and SO couldn't hear what mom was saying and asked her to hold on and she started yelling at him not to tell her to shut up. Went downhill from there - she didn't want to eat with everyone else when they got to the mall, so he took her into Walmart. She picked up some Fixadent for her dentures, then yelled at him she only used Polydent, why would he pick up fixodent (he didn't, she did), then wanted to buy about 8 outfits and got really mad that he told her she had no room (not to mention she has way outgrown Walmart sizes), then started picking up stuff to eat and was mad when he said no, she can't buy like she has an apartment, a few snacks were ok, but there was no room for anything else. Then she wanted to eat, soon as they got the food she started yelling at him they were going to miss the van (which was 2 and a half hours late to pick them up so that was more fodder for her anger). She refused to talk to anyone and was downright rude the rest of the day. Poor guy goes out of his way for her to make sure everything is ok, misses a whole days pay to help them on this trip. Now she has lost her knight in shining armor for the next few days cause he is so peeved with her he is not going to go up there LOL And he told her he was cancelling her trip to IHOP next week because he wasn't going to deal with her if she is going to be nasty and she told him to get out. At least P seems to be a lot more mellow. Its a good idea of hiring someone to go visit with her -I never thought of that and it would give him a break so am going to see if he would be agreeable to that. Her main nurse Raffe dotes on her and we make sure he is taken care of -its just too bad he doesn't work 24 hours a day :) I just wish she would get resigned to being where she is at and would stop working so hard to get herself out of there and back home. Am afraid the next place she would end up at would be worse than where she is now. Marcie [/QUOTE]
