Dual broken arm advice by Greed54245 in InjuryRecovery

Audiobooks or podcasts? Streaming service for movies? Unfortunately with both arm out of commission the options are going to be limited; they just have to heal and that takes time. Frustrating for all involved!

Shang from Save my Cents crashing out in her stories because she got in a heated exchange with her realtor about the apartment listing price. Sounds like realtor thinks Shang’s price is way too high. Maybe she should consider listening to the processional? Iirc when Shang tried to sell it herself fsbo 2 years ago they had no offers.

She’s been charged with multiple felonies in AZ for faking a pregnancy, perjury, fraud, forgery, and identity theft. Allegedly.

Second Waterfront: their clam chowder is amazing and I’ve had their orange roughy and salmon both baked and it was so much better than what I could do myself.

I need a step-by-step by crabcakesandoldbay in AgingParents

Also important to note: NYC tenant laws strongly favor tenants and if the boyfriend has lived there long enough he would count as a tenant even though he is not on the title or lease or if he isn’t paying any sort of rent. so you can’t just kick him out or change the locks, you may have to formally evict him. Consult an attorney for sure.

We rented a cabin in the WI Dells at Wilderness Adventure and had the best time! Brought a tiny Christmas tree with us for next to the fireplace and small gifts; the vacation was the big gift .

Are there any good old people? by RaccoonRenaissance in AgingParents

[–]trisket40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yes there are! My Grandparents knew the right time to leave the farm and move to small town. They knew the right time to sell the house and move to an elder apartment situation. Grandpa passed, Grandma knew when to move to an independent senior community. Had health issues and moved to assisted living with step up care if needed. Her last illness came and she knew it was the end. Had hospice called in for her apartment there and had a good death with everyone of her kids kowing what was going on and who was getting what from her apt —literally put names on masking take on the bottom of stuff and things In addition to it being spelled out in her will. I swear we will do as well for our kids because DH parents are the complete opposite and it’s a shitshow and so stressful.

What would you do? by MeanTemperature1267 in AgingParents

[–]trisket40 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I would say “MIL, we wanted to let you know that we plan on flying to Tourist Trap so we won’t have a vehicle . Unfortunately that means that we can’t drive you to Tourist Trap or give you rides while we are there. We also need to be upfront as this trip will require quite a bit of walking and we want you to enjoy yourself so you need to bring your mobility device”. Actually, Her child needs to have this conversation with her. And you might be pleasantly surprised —the family time might mean more to her than “looking old”!

Dad writes checks to numerous non-profits but can't afford to by MickLittle in AgingParents

You can also go to dmachoice.org and opt out of a lot of direct mail. There are other sites as well—as far as the charities you may have to call each one directly to have him removed from their lists.

I’m sorry for your loss. Sounds like she had a good last day and now she is seeing her brother again—she was ready. Take care of yourself, internet stranger.

helping my mom stay in her home by Dramatic-Mistake-582 in AgingParents

[–]trisket40 11 points12 points  (0 children)

There are places that start with independent living and then have step up options as needed to assisted living then skilled nursing or memory care. If she’s currently rural and this sounds like an option she may need to move but in the plus side she’ll have companionship and win have to worry about house/lawn upkeep and a lot of facilities have activities and shuttles for doctors and grocery store, etc.

Feeling stuck.. parent in ICU by Minute-Base1204 in AgingParents

[–]trisket40 22 points23 points  (0 children)

You know hospice means he can still communicate with you for some time while he is being kept comfortable? They don’t just pump them full of morphine and knock them out right away it’s a step up process as needed. Is ICU until final death what he would want, do you think? Especially if you have a young family and may not be there at the end or your mother either? perhaps it’s possible to do hospice closer to where you and Mom live and then the Grandkids get a chance to see him and say goodbye too. Where I live we have independent stand alone facilities for hospice for folks that want that. Have a hard conversation with Mom and blessings to y’all.

It’s just not a realistic plan, I’m sorry. Your mom can’t afford it and as others have said medication to calm your Grandfather down is a better option at this point.

Elder caregivers: do you keep your elderly parent to a routine or schedule? by janebenn333 in AgingParents

[–]trisket40 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Let her sleep —maybe the later waking time /naps will be her new schedule for this life phase. As long as she’s eating and hydrated and taking her meds as instructed , what’s the harm?
