Can Rover Come Over |
By Cheryl Ellis, Staff Writer
|
|
We all
love our pets, and our attachment to them varies from
one individual to another. In cases of the infirm
or elderly, the attachment to a pet may be much more
intense. Individuals with memory loss may not
understand why they have to move to assisted living, or
in with a relative, let alone any problems that might
come with bringing Fido along. ....Continued

Thinking they are just stubborn or stupid

As the Baby Boomer
generation continues to age, many are learning
that the simple everyday activities they once
took for granted, such as getting into their own
bathrooms, have become more challenging now that
they have a mobility impairment that limits
their ability to move about their home without
assistance....Continued

"I planned with my sister for her to
watch my husband on her day off and I treated myself to
a day treatment at a local spa. It was much more cost
effective than a nervous breakdown!”

My sister has MS and
lives in CO. I live in MO.
Her husband of 33 years
passed away suddenly at home
in March and her youngest
son, 29 years old, has been
left to take care of her.
The stress is overwhelming
him and he is having issues
of his own. She then fell at
home and broke her hip and
was hospitalized for a month
to heal.
She has noone to help her
as her son was in a terrible
auto accident and now is
hurt. I am told by other
family members that neither
her or her son are eating
right. She can't get her
house clean or do the other
chores needed to keep her
house up. My question is
this. Is there any financial
help so I can go live out by
her to help her with the day
to day care she needs? I
want to relocate to do this
and my funds are limited. I
am worried sick everyday and
always told her I would be
there to help her. She is
only 51! Please, her life
has been a downward spiral
and she is my baby sister.
She has always been there
for me. Her and her husband.
Please let me know what I
can do to make this
possible!
Thank-You!
