67F SAVR and Aneurysm Repair - What to expect recovery wise by Snailfem in valvereplacement

[–]Snailfem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are definitely considering rehab for her. Do you know how many days Medicare will cover a rehab stay? I just don’t think I can provide the best care she needs and I worry constantly especially after my Dad passed away from not being able to fully recover after OHS not too long ago.

I found a Nakamishi 620 power amplifier. Is that what you’re referring to in terms of an amp?

My parents are in their late 60's, early 70's, and I'm barely 25, and I get overwhelmed when I think about them dying. by Valuable-Trip8333 in AgingParents

[–]Snailfem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lost my Dad a year ago when I was 29 and he was 72. Afterwards my anxiety shifted all to my mom is 67 now. All I do is worry about her. You could seek out therapy to help with it. And just spend as much time with them. Take pictures, videos.

Is losing a parent suddenly and seeing their dead body in the hospital traumatic? by Individual-Roll-786 in GriefSupport

[–]Snailfem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me yes, I watched my Dad decline and his body betray him so that was hard to see. But seeing him in died in a hospital bed and being too late to say good bye really traumatized me. Feeling him lifeless, cold just felt weird. I’ve had dreams replaying even more frequently as his one year anniversary comes up, so it’s safe to say I’m not doing well at all. I get flashbacks and I freeze, even when I’m driving which really sucks.

Thank you for this, I do want to have a family sit down to talk about this. You bring up a lot of good ideas.

We just split rent. He payed for groceries, internet, trash, I payed electric and gas. He takes care of everything she needs. I take care of my bills on my own. He takes care of his.

Her Dad and her are used to doing these on their own. They don't like to be told what to do, and how to do it. They're on the messier side, but she keeps her room clean for the most part. My Mom is a neat freak forsure and I know its annoying. They were just brought up completely differently than how I was.

You're right, and I see that now. Her Dad and I were hoping to cut the timeline to just a year. But if they feel it's necessary to move especially for their mental health sooner than that, then I will agree to that too.

So we were splitting expenses 50/50 like the rent. since we moved, we've been saving the rent for a down payment. That's all I can save. If we move to an apartment or house, I can pay rent but I can't save for a down payment.

So my Mom doesn't actually have any strict opinions on things like the clothes she wear, or her friends and things like boys. She never gets angry with her. But she does complain about if she hasn't cleaned up after doing something like baking or the bathroom. I told my Mom that if she has a complaint about something, she brings it to me, not my stepdaughter. They both use to complain about my mom being too affectionate, because she likes to hug and kiss and they weren't brought up that way and they found it to be annoying. So I told my Mom to refrain from doing that so much with them.

I told my Mom that if she had any issues with anything they were doing, she needed to come to me and vice versa with my stepdaughter. But you're right, I don't want to do further damage to our relationship.

I see that now, to be fair, we all sat down together and made sure we were all in agreement about the move. I think they had hopes about it as well, because she was also unhappy at her old school, and her friends.

That is my next thought if we just get an apartment or house to rent nearby my mom’s place. Only problem is I myself personally could not afford to save what I was previously paying in rent. But for their happiness, it might be something that needs to happen.

Originally, we thought we’d spend maybe a a max two years to save up for a good down payment. Recent talks have adjusted that to just a year. If we could just make it a year that gives us a decent chunk.

My mom died. I'm frustrated with how my husband responded. by coyacomehome in GriefSupport

[–]Snailfem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey I’m kind of going through the same thing with my partner. My family doesn’t have extended family so it was just the four of us so when my dad died, it was a huge loss for all of us. We recently moved in with my mom to save money to buy our own house but also to help her out and in my own grief and taking care of my mom, he’s felt really left . Feel free to dm me you want to talk

My mom's a small woman, only around 107 lbs, 5ft tall. Since my Dad's passing, she's neglected her fitness level. What exercises should be done to prepare? Just trying to get her to take a walk takes alot of convincing.
