As long as she had a 3 day stay in the hospital she is eligable for an extended stay elsewhere if I remember correctly you can still place her if you can get a doctor to write orders for her placement.

Maybe after a few days of this, the insurance company will send her to rehab. I hope that she gets the attention she needs. M. |

As you all know my mother had hurt her foot. It turns out that they
found out last Monday that its a broken foot or ankle not sure which. So as of now they have stopped both OT and PT. Because the Orthopedic doesn't want any weight or anything on the foot. HE told my sister that OT would even put some on it. But its now taking 2 people to lift my mother. She is getting the nurse once a week. The home aide 2 or 3 times a week. But we are really struggling to cover all the overnight stays. My sister has talked my mother into hiring a CNA for $ 35.00 dollars a hour for 8 hours a night. For a few nights a week. She has even had to enlist a friend that loves my mom to help. But I wont be able to lift her, and Derrick will be able to help during the day and evening. I would even allow him to help to about 1am if he is able to stay awake. Because he is on spring break and can sleep otherwise. But we still aren't covering it all. Any idea's if the doctor wrote it out if medicaid/medicare might pay for the CNA at night. Thanks Donna |

Wanted to tell everyone that Sunday the 21st of March is my 29th
wedding anniversary. Its usually been like pulling teeth to get my husband to recognize this. THis year when I asked, he says yes right away to going out to dinner. And today when I talked to him on the cell phone. He had stopped and bought me a card. WOW, you wouldn't believe how many years its been since I got a card. Donna * One very happy Donna* surprised to say the least. |

Happy Anniversary, Donna!
And that is great that your husband is getting on board with a plan. I've got no good ideas to help your mother in her place except to keep asking for help until you find the right agency. Someone is supposed to help you / her. M. |

My sister who has more experience in these things than I do. Says, that a Rehab center can't take her till she is ready to do Occupational therapy and physical therapy again. That they would place her in a nursing home. And We all know that would not be what my mother wants. She would then not only feel we deserted her. But also that doing this is not something we want to do. I am at a hard place in this. I personally can't do much of the lifting. But my husband doesn't understand this. But he helped a lot over the weekend. So I am not upset with his getting on to me. Saying I should be staying up some nights to help too. Its just not something I can do. Donna |

Dear Donna,

Maybe it is best for her to to be in a nursing home. Family members can still take turns visiting her around the clock. M. |
