Getting Help.....yay!!!

Tomorrow is going to be a busy day. A hospital bed will be delivered for Mom and then finally some help. It will take about 1.5 hours for them to get all the information about Mom, but there will be a therapist to get Mom's strength up, a nurse and a home health aide to help Mom with personal things. I really hope this works out, the other one didn't. One thing about this time is Mom is looking forward to it also. She finally sees that I can't do it all on my own and is even willing to pay for what Medicare doesn't. I am so hopeful that I can feel it in my heart.

Mom is in a wheel chair for now. She just doesn't have the strength to stand by herself without help. So she really understands now.

Janet, I am so happy to hear that things are working out for you and your mom. And I am very encouraged to hear that your mom is amenable to accepting help and that she understands that she needs help, especially that she is going to use the wheelchair. I think it will make things so much better.

I'm glad your mom is finally getting the help she needs. Hopefully she will gain her strength back soon. It's wonderful to hear she's actually happy to be getting the help.

This is wonderful, Janet! You and Mom both need the help. She may complain, but I bet that this will help her health a lot!
