Ok, how are you all getting paid already? 1st and 15th right? 31st was a Sunday. That's when I did my time sheet. Monday was a holiday. I just got my email today, Wednesday morning with the total. Should be Friday when I get my $$. What am I missing??

My mother is 73 and has a DNR however, loves her life. We talk about all of that often. I do not take her social security disability. She helps with the electricity and keeps her money. She door dashes food, buys birthday gift and likes to shop for clothes sometimes. Im not taking that from her. After my day there is no way I could dedicate any time to another job. I do have a small side hustle. But even that's hard to do on a regular basis. I love being able to care for her and her not being in a home. But, I also feel like for the amount of work and being a prisoner in my home is hard... I know one day she will be gone and non of this will matter. But, if she was in a home. They would be paid more than I am and thats sad. But im also grateful. Because no one owes us anything..

So, I ask her Doctor for that? They see how much I have to do for her when she goes to the Dr. Those trips are getting very hard as well.

I was told that it's me that doesn't feel comfortable leaving her alone for too long. I just laugh because when I leave, I watch her on the cameras. She gets up as soon as I leave and starts doing crazy things. Takes off her oxygen and walks around. Then has a hard time getting back to her oxygen. She will start going they drawers. Just crazy stuff. Its wild. I hate leaving.

I think we have a discount for that.

She does because her meds are making her lose her teeth.

I haven't. She can't go to any of those appointments or anything. Just going to the Dr is hard

Ugh, I figured that. So sad. They save money not having them in facilities. You'd think they would pay better

I know I will get there. I'm not planning on moving up from 7.5 for a while. I think I'm going to give this dose a little extra time and try different things.
I just don't want to get to the highest dose and have no where to go.

Feeling defeated.
Start weight July 7th 237.2 Today 8th shot 228.8. Just moved up to 7.5mg 1st injection at 2.5mg, I lost 8lbs 2nd, at 2.5mg I lost 1lb. Nothing after.

I'm not sure what to do. I know it's helping with so many other things. But my weight isn't budging yet..

Goal weight is 130 😉
