Laundry

 Got a call tonight that dads behavior has changed.  He is being very standoffish about his laundry.  He thinks they are stealing his clothes.

Tomorrow I have to go down, sort it out, calm him down and I guess do his laundry.

This doesn't end people.  You can't just visit and go on with your life.  I never expected anything less.

Apparently if it doesn't change the medical system gets involved.  They may move him if things get worse.

After 3 months progress starts

 I'm going to be in a phone meeting today with the hospital.  Dad is finally being panelled.  He will be moving to a long term care facility very soon.  It will be the first available bed.  After that I can pick the place, I intend for him to goto holy family. Because of his wandering and aggressive behaviour he is being fast tracked and will need to goto a extreme care place.  Not just a regular Ward. This week I have to slowly clean up his current place and get compression socks. I went to a mobility clinic but they told me they couldn't full the prescription without being able to measure him.  I asked a nurse and she gave me an alternative place.  One where I don't have to haul him out of the hospital.

The supportive housing place doesn't think they can take care of dad anymore. I didn't sleep well last night, maybe got 2 hours (Sunday).  My anxiety is bad. Got the call that he needs to goto emergency.  Left work at 1, my mom came with me. Looks like dad has a UTI.  Hopefully they can give him a bath and get him feeling better. He's currently sleeping.  We've been here since 6 pm and it is now 2 am.  Just had coffee. I don't know what the plan is at this point.

End Of October

Going to see Dad tomorrow night.  I'm at my witt's end with the fucking home.  He hasn't showered in almost 2 months.  He has been wearing the same clothes for almost as long.  They call me when he's not eating, or when he hasn't showered.  I had a one day break about a week ago, then got a call, played phone tag and worried for 5 days, finally got a hold of someone just to find out it is the same old story.  I had a conversation with the resident manager, and it looks like "they are going to make a decision in a month about moving him to long term care".   Honest opinion it's not going to happen.  I've been fucked twice already by LTC.  It will be the best thing for him.   The last assessment he had they deemed that he is "right where he is supposed to be".   I'm thinking that in the next month I am going to get calls basically daily.  I honestly think it's their MO to be doing this, waiting to see whose going t...
