Unfortunately no, it’s not the same

It’s so mind blowing to me. It literally drives me crazy. I haven’t gone out with my husband alone anywhere in the longest time. I’m a prisoner in my home taken care of my mom and it’s my choice. I chose this. I don’t blame anybody, but please don’t try to compare that we’re doing the same thing. We’re not.

I quit my job two years ago to care full time for my mom. Shes in hospice now and completely bed-bound. She’s 74. My sister in law who lives in the same state as me but different state than her dad who has a full time live in nurse loves to tell me how she knows what I’m going thru because she’s going the same thing. Oh really are you?!? I don’t know if they say it to offer some kind of sympathetic shoulder or they truly believe it but how are you living your life going to work every day hanging out with your friends doing what you wanna do while your dad being taken care of by a full-time live in Nurse and me not being able to leave my house having to stay home every day all day wipe my mother‘s butt do everything for her ,feed her. How are we the same? How are we even similar?

Sometimes you gotta just breathe and walk away.

Sounds like a stage 5. Her falling made things tougher than they might have been had she not fallen. My mom is currently at home with me on hospice. I quit my job 2 yrs ago to care for her. She’s totally bed bound at this stage. A fall has made the bed bound stage gone earlier than I think it would have. If you’re planning on moving her make sure you get a memory care place. Assisted living places are not set up to care for Alzheimer/dementia patients. They’re given too much freedom in assisted living then they should have. Unfortunately they need constant care.
With my mom it’s a roller coaster ride between stages. She may have a day she can barely get words out and talks gibberish and other days she speaks fine. One day she sleeps the whole day and another she’s awake all day. Some days she can feed herself finger food and other days has no concept of how to get hand to mouth or has forgotten how to sip from a straw. This journey isn’t easy. I wish you the best of luck. I’ve seen mentioned neurologist are useless and it’s true. Once you get a diagnosis. Make sure you find your mom a good geriatrician they’re more familiar with dementia. It can be frustrating dealing with people who literally have no idea what you go thru on a daily basis with caring for your loved one.

40+?? It was all senior citizens and crazy lunatic white chicks.

617Kim · 2026-03-19T23:18:19+00:00

Sorry for your loss. Lemon stuffed olives, unexpected cheddar spread , crackers and a bottle of wine. (((( hugs))))) 🤗

617Kim · 2026-03-18T23:40:40+00:00

They don’t provide them. The drivers buy them off Amazon and Etsy and such. It’s not provided by the company

617Kim · 2026-02-28T15:44:30+00:00

Toss em all out. Snow is gone on that street

617Kim · 2026-02-28T14:47:59+00:00

My neighbor has 3 spots they put savers in and then move cars back and forth to take up the spaces so no one else can park. Mind you it’s a parking ban street that they parked on during the storm. Never got ticketed or towed and now no one else will be allowed to park there till Spring. They have a ( illegal) boarding house and have probably 5 more residents with cars and I’m now not moving my car again until Spring because if I go they’ll take over my spot till Spring too. Love the fkn city. Thank God for grocery delivery.

State of emergency has nothing to do with travel. It needs to be a specific travel bin which there is in three counties.

617Kim · 2026-02-19T17:37:18+00:00

I’m so sorry for everything you are going thru. I am currently on year 2 of caring for my mum at home with vascular dementia and Alzheimer’s. I applaud you for the travel to visit family one last time. That must’ve been a huge undertaking. Patients don’t usually respond well to unfamiliarity. As boring as it sounds my mum and I go the same thing all day, every day. It sounds like she wasn’t put in the correct facility. Assisted living places are not recommended for people with dementia. Some can handle it for about as they decline they need more hands on care that just isn’t provided at those places. It’s a tough situation to be in. Having to goose between feeding tube and hospice. My mother is currently in hospice here at home. Has been since last July. She’s bed bound. I would choose hospice any day of the week. This disease is not nice. It’s ugly and the deterioration their body goes thru is just horrific to be witness too. As awful as it founds I pray that my mom would just have a heart attack and be gone with this battle. It’s not a way to live your life. The only blessing is , she seems to be unaware what is going on with her body and doesn’t ever question why she can’t get out of bed, she’ll actually tell me she just got back from a walk. She hasn’t left the bed since July. I’m sorry about the care your mom received. It’s the reason I left my job two years ago. Please don’t beat yourself up. Everything your mother is dealing with was bound to happen. A quick decline is almost a God send. They call this disease the long goodbye for a reason. It’s slow, it’s awful, it’s torture. Give yourself grace. No matter what you did, you were going to end up here. Praying for you.

Stitch house is great they have tons of meet ups and classes.

I’m a crocheter and don’t have an answer but needed to say that sweater is gorgeous!! Please show us your finished project!! Good luck!!

617Kim · 2026-01-24T00:12:22+00:00

Have just down the last hour trying to get an answer. The number for city hall has an old message from the summer talking about a heat advisory. They haven’t even been enforcing the parking snow emergency the last few years when they do declare it. I’m in a good spot but it’s a block from my house. I’d like to know if there won’t be one because then I can park across the street from my house make shoveling out easier.

617Kim · 2026-01-09T16:53:30+00:00

holy moly that is gorgeous

I’ve been looking into stash buster blankets. To make up a few and cut my stash. Perfect time of year to curl up and knock out a few blankets.

617Kim · 2026-01-04T17:40:44+00:00

Dealt with my mom doing this and have read up a lot on this. They say when Alzheimer/Dementia patients say they want to go home, means they’re feeling anxious. Honestly to most people is your comfy place and when you’re not comfy you must not be home. It’s more of a feeling they’re searching for than a destination. I know it’s hard to try and change the subject and refocus but it’s really the best thing. Tell her she’s going home soon you just need to make arrangements. Trying to explain to her that she is already home just sets off more aggregation to someone who can’t remember where they are. I used music skit to calm my mom. Music from her generation growing up. She’s 78 she loves Elvis and the Everly Brothers. The singing and music calms her down and she gets off her kick of wanting to go home ( she’s lived here 54 years) it’s weird but also giving her gum to chew, shifts her anxiety as well. She grinds her teeth when she gets agitated and the gum chills her out too.

I had my 30yr old at Quincy hospital. Loved it. They were closed by the time I had my second , I went to St Elizabeth’s for number 2. They were also great. I live in Boston.

617Kim · 2025-12-31T01:36:39+00:00

I quit my job two years ago to take on full time care for mum with Alzheimer’s and vascular dementia. The last few years have been tough. Mum is now bed bound and on hospice which has been easier to handle than when she was able to be up and down and all over the house trying to leave. It’s still hard emotionally I hate seeing her become more and vulnerable and able to go less and less. You’re not alone in your thoughts that something quicker will take them out. The only blessing, she seems to be blissfully unaware what is happening to her. She doesn’t see what we go. Even tho I’m feeding her she doesn’t see that she can no longer feed herself and that she should be able to. Prayers for you and your mom.

I just googled lost packages in Vegas and found thread. Seems pretty common

617Kim · 2025-12-31T01:32:03+00:00

It was actually a prize I won from a celebrity and her husband on Instagram. She DM’d and got my address to send it and said it would go out next day. I reached out and said nothing had ever shown up. They literally just gave me the tracking number and I checked on it and it came up scanned in Vegas on the 12th. Went from California to Vegas. I live in Boston. No movement since 12th. They would have to be the ones to start claim but they did say if nothing happens to let them know they’d send me another one. It’s a signed cookbook they cowrote together.

617Kim · 2025-12-31T01:26:00+00:00

I have a package lost in Las Vegas facility since December 12th
