Welll, my mom is something. She is not a sweet little old lady. She is refusing services, not eating enough, etc..... She just wants to be put in her bed in front of her tv, have pain pills, and left alone. Very frustrating. She wasn't always this grumpy and difficult. I think it really started after my dad died.
We got her a studio apartment in an assisted living facility. Very nice. I did not know that at $10,500 a month they supply nothing as far as furniture and stuff, so my older brother(from Arizona) and I busted our assets moving furniture and stuff and getting her room ready before the hospital transported her to the home. Unfortunately my younger brother broke his arm 4 days ago, so he couldn't help. She is getting hospice care now, along with the facility care. She is skin and bones. She is not ambulatory at this time. One doctor said at her current rate of calorie intake, his guess was 2 weeks. I think this is the most mentally and physically drained and stressed I've ever been in my life. Thanks for asking. |

Man, I tell you, every other car in San Jose now is a Tesla.
I saw a twin today with all the rear end stuff off it and the largest fart can muffler I've ever seen. It was popping and crackling like crazy. Funny. |

The sad thing is Cupertino is mostly people with families and older people. It's a "boring" suburb.
The cute girls around my age who live here are usually already married or at the very least living with a guy already lol.

I've recently realised I've reached old age. Not very old birthday wise but my body is beginning to fail me. Decades of Type 1 diabetes is beginning to take its toll and regardless of how well the blood glucose level is controlled a body without diabetes is going to fare better all things being equal (which they aren't). Even without diabetes aging would have made its self known eventually.
I am not suggesting that this is unique but the one very important incredibly significant point is I've never been in this situation before. I'm thinking it's a little bit interesting and scary at the same time. Ah well, I think I'll post a picture.

I have a congenital heart condition. Last time I was in the emergency room 3 years ago one cardiologist said, "You have hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and you made it to 56?, Wow.". That didn't give me much hope. I know what your dealing with sucks, and I know the daily routines you must deal with really suck. Hang in there, and you always have this group of a-holes and retards to vent and joke with. Take care of yourself.... Ho. |

I've never made my exact age known here. That way I can claim to be any where between 12 and 90 although claiming I am 12yo doesn't hold up to scrutiny given I joined this forum 11 years ago.
