WELL I DIDN'T SEE THIS MOVE TO THE CARE CENTER COMING SO SOON. I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A MUCH MORE GRADUAL EVENT.THE FACT OF THE INJURED HIP AND TIME AND COST ELEMENTS THINGS HAVE ESCALATED.
EVERYONE IS ASKING ME HOW I FEEL AND I I FEEL ISOLATED, SHUT DOWN, MOMENTS OF QUIET DESPERATION AND LIKE JUMPING UP AND DOWN AND SCREAMING AND PULLING OUT MY HAIR.
IT IS HARD MAKING LIFE CHANGING DECISIONS UNDER THIS KIND OF CONDITIONS. SANDRA IS VERY GOOD AT ORGANIZING AND KEEPING ME FOCUSED.
I AM GLAD SHE IS STRONG AND DECISIVE AND IT IS PROBABLY HARDER ON HER THAN ME. SHE IS VERY SWEET AT ALLOWING AS MANY CHOICES AS SHE CAN AND REMEMBERING I CAN'T CONTROL WHAT OTHER PEOPLE DO.I DIDN'T WANT OTHER PEOPLE MAULING OVER MY BELONGINGS LIKE VULTURES BUT THERE IS NO TIME OR ENERGY TO GET THINGS TO DI AND THEY DON;T PICK UP ANYMORE.
MY FRIENDS DONNIE AND JOYCE ARE GOING TO PACK UP AND SAVE SOME THINGS FOR ME AND FINISH CLEANING THE APT.
I SO DEEPLY APPRECIATE ALL OF MY DEAR FAMILY MEMBERS OFFERING THEIR HELP. IT HAS MADE ME FEEL LOVED AND CARED FOR. WE ARE FALLING OVER EACH OTHER RIGHT NOW AND WE WILL LET SOME OF YOU KNOW WHEN AND IF WE NEED HELP. IN THE MEANTIME KEEP ME AND SANDRA IN YOUR PRAYERS AND KNOW THAT THE STRENGTH THAT HAS GOTTEN ME THROUGH MY LIFE IN THE PAST IS STILL WITH ME AND I WILL GIVE A 100% AT MAKING A HAPPY AND BRIGHT SPACE FOR MYSELF AS I CAN.

Sorry to hear that this has come on you so suddenly, but hopefully you can get the care that you need to get healthier and stronger. We have a friend in our ward that went into the full time care place, and it has been really good for her, she's very happy. It took a lot of the pressure off of her, worrying about what she would do if she fell, or had an accident or something.
Mom and I would be glad to store stuff for you, like the coca cola collection, and the m&m collection, or whatever, then when you want them we can send them to you. One of those packaging centers could package and send it. We'd be glad to pay for it. Then you wouldn't have to give it away or get rid of your stuff, but you wouldn't have to worry about it getting lost or where to put it. Just an idea. We're glad to help you and support you any way you need as you work through this.
We love you very much! Good luck, and keep us up to date. Alicia
We love you so much!
You are a strong woman, and I've always admired you as such. We keep you in our prayers every night.
You are very good at finding the bright and good things in life in any situation. I think that is a wonderful trait to have.
We LOVE YOU.
