[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 398384, member: 84"] Depends diapers. Make an investment. Go to a pharmacy that sells home health aids and tell them you need to buy some chux pads. Will save a ton of laundry and the furniture. And you won't have to sew. Generic diaper wipes for when grandma goes...to clean her up with. Sanitary and easy on older skin which is fragile......again, reduction in laundry. Hmm. Think I'd be telling Grandma that either she changes her clothes or she can go to a nursing home where they will make her change her clothing. (usually works) You do need some cooperation from her and taking care of the elderly at home....especially with what Grandma is pulling is tough at best. Doesn't matter if you intend to put her in a nursing home or not, say it like you mean it. Then inform others to back you up. Grandma is acting like a child, time to begin to treat her with that mind set to some extent. Not saying to completely treat her that way, but I think you know what I mean. Could you get a home health aide for the 3 days to come in? Medicare may cover it. I hear ya about the New Year not coming in especially well. My mom will be here tomorrow. She wants generation pics taken. I have no teeth. I don't want my picture taken. I mean c'mon, for real?? Mom would never have her picture taken with no teeth, no matter what. Of course Mom spent a fortune since I was a little girl on her mouth to prevent ever having to have dentures in the first place, yet we never once saw the dentist. ugh Mom coming was enough to get it off to a shakey start......but the pics too?? Well that was a bit over the top. lol [/QUOTE]
