Too bad I don’t know anyone who could be an intercessor for us...still working on the kitty thing, here, trying to get the deposit waived with a doctor’s letter. In the meantime, the kitteh I want is still available and is $20 less than she was two weeks ago. I just have to get there, and maybe I can get her free.

As for the Forever Companion, I gave up on that years ago. Not looking, not sure I could tolerate a guy after living alone for nearly 30 years, but yes, I do get lonely.

Afternoon, all. My mother called this afternoon, having forgotten she’d emailed me at 3:30 this morning. She and my brother have moved Dad into a small Hospice facility for “end of life care.” I guess this means he’s not expected to improve after the major setbacks the last couple of weeks.

It’s about 20 miles from where Mom lives, but was the closest they could find to meet his needs. She’s got two private aides, CNAs both named Marie, which is convenient. She said Dad drifts in and out and gets medicine for pain when he seems uncomfortable. I don’t know if he can eat. Mom said he couldn’t have the chocolate one of the Maries offered, but that could have been a problem with the specific item.

My brother will be there until Saturday, I think. Hopefully Mom will have calmed down enough to keep track of the rest of her life by then. She should probably hire an aide for herself for a while. Maybe I’ll suggest it.
