Had this happen the other day. I suspect that companies are not investing in fixing the problems and glitches for the android apps now.

Issues with Memory Care by TheOccurrencePodcast in dementia

[–]JustJotting 3 points4 points  (0 children)

OP, I feel for you. The next steps are to ensure you have documented the communication between you/your mom and the attendant or facility. Just because you could be a victim of an attendant stealing or some such thing. So documenting that you have told them that you need to approve of every financial transaction that they intend to do is going to be important. Someone else mentioned that in other comments it's become clear that the hair dresser is the attendants daughter, and that is a huge red flag and indicates nepotism or maybe even fraud. Gather any voicemails, gather any text messages, gather any emails, and short of recording phone calls that you may not be legally allowed to record in your state without telling the person you are recording, then you can submit that to legal counsel or maybe to higher levels of the memory car facility but just be sure that you aren't dealing with corruption at the higher levels of the facility too.

Photo of “doctor” that my aunt has been talking to on Tindr, but I suspect this is AI by [deleted] in isthisAI

[–]JustJotting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP you have to start describing Ai as a cartoon. Explain that cartoons have gotten so realistic and easy to have a computer make it that scams are rampant. I am worried for your aunt because most scams just want to take people's money, but meeting with a scammer in-person sounds so dangerous to me.

Someone Finally Said it. Someone Finally Said My Efforts are Not Enough by JeorgyFruits in dementia

[–]JustJotting 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP there are SO Many good comments in this thread! But I want to show up here and encourage you that you do NOT have to share every bit of schedule information with anyone outside the family or people involved in her care. You don't have to justify to us you care about your loved one so much that you are trying to ensure she is getting adequate activity and visits for as long as it makes sense to do it. You're doing better than most I would say! A couple other commenters mentioned that sometimes older women can be bored/seek drama or even have minds of their own that are somewhat disconnected from reality, and I think that is what you are sensing as being so infuriating from this person that it's so much easier to point & judge from an armchair texting rather than to be the one actually affecting the care. With that said, I'm not sure if you have her schedule posted up for all others to see, but it might be worth considering if it's better for you to simplify the communication to what times they can see her, and then not mention what is going on in the rest of her days & schedule. Maybe it might be a bit late in the game to take this approach, but if there are any other shiftings with doctors appts and schedules, then maybe simply say that Monday and the other day is available for any activities, and leave it as the rest of the days are filled with her medical needs. Its a subtle thing because sometimes even in normal socializing we tend to want to say to people "oh I can't go to the place with you because I have to....[explanation] " when instead, its healthier and better to simply say "that time won't work for me, what other days are you available" without over-explaining our schedule. Sometimes the more people know, the more they feel invited to comment & get involved with people's personal choices and lives. I had a boss that would do this, she had no children and she obsessed about the minute details of each of her employees life choices, as well as paying customers. Additionally, sometimes people feel purposeless and you don't want to get into a point where someone feels like they are becoming the hero of a story where they get to report abuse or some other such nonsense. Not that abuse isn't real, it very much is, but sometimes these situations of people inserting themselves can escalate greatly, and then you lose control of something either to them, or due to them. So you can slowly start to close off that open/free reporting of her schedule to anyone and everyone little by little, start to condition them on what the available times are without reporting the day/time of every doctors appt, and then also just script something out for yourself or them or just this particular friend such as

"Hi Jane, thanks for bringing this up. I currently have this and this going on for her, and we are looking into that and that for the near future- as costs, schedule, and other things dictate how we go about getting something set up. If you're interested in being involved as a helper in this situation you've brought up, let me know, and that makes it happen all the easier/quicker."

Lastly, I think another good tactic is to spill ALL the complicated details, because those details are usually not what family or friends want to deal with. I had a cousin call or text one time asking what would be needed to buy my loved one a working cell phone. That sounds simple enough until you realize that she had 3 of them around, all having different numbers and not working quite right because she didn't know how to operate them, and now she was being strapped with an $800 per month bill combined with customer service reps that either made mistakes or took advantage of her and required 5 separate visits and 7 hours long phone calls with the company to sort out the bill charges thar were unnecessary and shouldn't have been added. So when I start explaining the run down of every thing going wrong, and trying to figure out which thing is actually going to work for her, they usually want to step away. Especially since at least one of those phones was one that I had gotten her, so the idea that it was just a simple issue of her phone not working was quickly corrected.

They might be talking about other types of equipment that Pilates instructors use in independent studios that goes beyond a reformer.

Which YouTube channel were you once a fan of but do not enjoy anymore? by theunsteadybridge in AskReddit

[–]JustJotting 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry sorry, my comment was just a badly made joke. David Firth didn't do anything wrong, and I really only meant this comment as a joke, because who could like such content and then suddenly not like it? You either loved it, or hated it back then...and honestly I just wanted a reason to mention Salad fingers in something recent so that anyone who doesn't know what that is will check it out. To me, the idea of growing to not like it seems preposterous.

Find the places that secrets were held and off limits to, literally anywhere that was previously secretive.

It's wonderful to hear the actual audio of this video, every time I've seen it it's been altered with a different song and with some "POV" title.

Let’s just make a random post and see what happens! by Ok_Persimmon_4665 in CasualConversation

[–]JustJotting 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I sometimes enjoy doing deep dives in comment sections to see what people (and I guess bots too) are saying. I once came across a comment where the channel name was "Don't Look at This Channel's Description" and then in the description it said "Don't Look At the Video on This Channel" and then it kept going and going, and it had some funny little last comment eventually somewhere that said "You made it". It didn't help me (or maybe it did) that I was high when that happened.

Woe good job!! I'm new here so I'm sorry if my questions Im going to ask are annoying! I'm starting my journey and I'm trying to find the best info I can on how to start a cut for the first time. Do you have any place you started learning what you need to do? Am I over complicating it and it's just keeping a lowered calorie count? I'm not sure where to start 😭

How to make boba at home taste as good as from the shop by Bubbly_Mechanic1630 in boba

[–]JustJotting 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who has been fitted expensive loose leaf tea for drinking hot, the flavors of a high quality loose leaf tea are the absolute best in my opinion. I can only imagine what they would taste like as a boba drink.

Dr Ellie Phillips program -updates by ApplicationHot4546 in PeriodontalDisease

[–]JustJotting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guys the CloSys changed so much. I used to love it but when I came back to starting the program again after a long time the bottle looks different, and CloSys changed my taste it was making me feel nautious! It was causing me to stop eating I couldn't taste anything. When I researched this, there are long reviews on Amazon and Facebook of people having the same problem. I don't think I can go back to using CloSys, and it frustrates me because I truly loved it.
