Checking in…

  • Mood:
It's been a wicked couple of weeks here. Between an old relative out of town and a big to-do going down at work, I have been exhausted most of the past several days. I have an great aunt (by marriage) who has never been a favorite person in our family. As well as I remember her, she's been mean, critical, and prideful ever since I've known her. After my uncle (my mother's uncle) passed nearly 10 years ago, mom has taken it upon herself to keep up with Gladys; calling her regularly and visiting when she can. Mom's sisters used to help but one is now in a nursing home herself and the other is not in a position to be of much use either. Well, a couple of weeks ago, the police came to Gladys' house and took her away to the hospital because she was supposedly yelling out the back door of her house and "seeing" people who weren't there. They called my cousin who lives about 45mins away and she went to see what was going on. They ended up putting her in a nursing home. I went down the next day to help my cousin straighten up some legal things since Adult Protective Services had been called in. My mom was waiting to receive a blood transfusion (more later) and couldn't go, so she sent me in her place. My cousin and I got into it with APS, since they were basically accusing us of gross negligence. Here these people had only met this woman a couple of days back and they were making assumptions without even talking to us. She's refused help from any of us, has sent back money and gift cards sent to her on birthdays and Christmas (she doesn't accept charity), and has alienated every friend and relative she's ever had. Her house has gone to pot since she's hardly able to clean it anymore (did I mention that she's 86?). But she's brought the majority of her miseries on herself and I have a really hard time feeling sorry for her. In the end, she will be staying in the nursing home since DADS (Dept. for the Aging and Disabled…) and the doctor has determined that she can no longer live on her own. Now we have to deal with clearing out her house (she rents) and disposing of most of her possessions since most of them are in no shape to sell or give away. In the meantime, my mom is paying her rent and bills since her bank account has been frozen until the APS investigation is over. What a mess! Mom went to the doctor for a routine checkup and it was found that her blood count was low, so the doctor ordered a transfusion. The trouble began when they couldn't find a match for her. She had to have so much blood transfused a couple of years ago between her surgery recovery and a bleeding episode that her blood has built up all these antibodies and it's hard to find blood that her system won't reject. They finally came up with it and she got filled up last week. The doctor tells us that this can happen occasionally, but not to be too alarmed unless her count goes down again in the next few weeks. Keeping up with my mother's health has given me more insights into medical conditions and terminology, I feel as though I could take the test and hang out my shingle! Our district is going to have a big "State of the District" luncheon next Wednesday wherein our superintendent will expound upon the wonders of our school system. It's being hosted by the Education Foundation and is actually a fundraiser for that group. I've been putting together display signs, laminating and trimming 600 placemats, and trying to pull things together for table decorations. The placemat thing isn't so bad; they were created by our kindergartners who illustrated "What I Want to be When I Grow Up". There's nothing like looking at the artwork of 5 year olds to put a smile on your face. I'd love to keep some for myself. We have aspiring doctors, firefighters, police, ballerinas, artists, construction workers, NFL stars, veterinarians, singers, nurses, teachers, models, fashion designers, and cheerleaders. Several want to work at MacDonalds. I guess to a 5 year old, that can look pretty glamorous. I'll leave my rambling now and save some for later. Pray for me… Bueno bye.

Good luck with everything, Debb.
I know what you mean about feeling like you could hang out your shingle. I joke that I'm ready to perform surgery with a steak knife and some dental floss. LOL
