I admit my sister just called. My mom's neighbor called her to let her know that our mom's electricity was turned off and her neighbor came home to find my 64 y/o mom on her hands and knees crawling up the driveway and steps to her home because she'd fallen and couldn't get up (cries). I admit that my mom's neighbor paid her electricity for her, so she wouldn't be cold and is bringing her food and helping to take care of her until my sister and I can get down to Louisiana to take care of her, and convince her to come live with me (she doesn't have a choice, it is live with me or go into a nursing home.) I'm in Michigan, my sister is in TN. Neither of us can get there until about the 2nd of Feb. I admit that between the two of us, my sister and I have talked to my mom all week and talked to her home healthcare nurses, and no one has mentioned that my mom has fallen at least 3 times and is all bruised up (screams!) I admit that I'm not happy about that. I admit that my mom isn't being very honest about the truth of what is going on. I admit that I just need everything to happen faster, so that I can take care of everything NOW! I admit that just venting here, helps relieve some of the pent up stress and frustrations. I admit I hope people don't think I'm just being dramatic.
