[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 251823, member: 84"] Star, you're sweet. mother in law just knows I give her the straight stuff. Up til now I've never said it was a necessary step, because while I'd have liked her to move to assisted living.....it wasn't absolutely necessary. But this time it is unsafe for her to go home and I told her so in no uncertain terms. It is an extremely nice clean facility. So far staff seem kind and caring and attentive. She is settled in and coping well. Better than I had hoped. easy child and the great grands and I will be visiting this evening.....also to bring her walker and some items from home to make her more comfy. Darrin has drawn her a picture for her bulletin board. He worries about his great Nana. Nice thing about this facility is that its down the street from us. :) I can walk the dogs down to visit once she's up and about.......if she gets up and about. I'm worried because she hasn't been up since tues. Doesn't sound long.......but very unlike mother in law. And with her so very severe arthritis I'm worried if they don't get her sitting in a chair soon........she's gonna lose what little use she has of her legs. And that would seal her fate for the nursing home. She's on pain medications for the first time and tolerating them well. They help with the pain some, but not alot. Gotta be better than Tylenol for pete's sake. Reinforcements will be here tomorrow. I haven't mentioned her being discharged to "home" yet as we've got to talk and form a game plan first. Thankfully mother in law hasn't really asked. Hopefully the rest of my weekend can be spent with my nose in a book to learn the Math before the exam on Monday. I'm exhausted and I really haven't done that much. Went to bed at 9pm last night.....haven't done that since grade school. :faint: Too bad I woke up ready for the day at 3am. LOL [/QUOTE]
