If your not happy with him in there, move him ASAP. Let them know that is unacceptable.

I WANT TO SCREAM. I AM TO NICE OF A PERSON. WELL NOT NO MORE. My lovely
SIL finally found the straw that broke the camels back. dad was in the hospital again for pain. come to find out he did not fall at the NH. When he fell and broke his hip he fractured his pevis.......AGAIN. no wonder why he is in so much pain. i am trying to do my best. I'm sorry to vent. my sil called the VA today to see about getting him into the Va home. She told my brother that they would not take the house if he went there. SO at work this afternoon. I went to talk to the VA Adm in our building at work. He said they would take everything in assets that he has. SO I get to STRESS more and call the VA Adm down where he lives and see if i get the same story. IF she would Just Stay out of our business. My husband does not go around nosing into their crap. Sorry. I know right now I will not sleep tonight. I will be on the phone tomorrow at WORK. MAKE ME LOOK LIKE THE BAD GUY HERE.....I have already started the MEDICAID process.

Thanks Girls. The story continues.............................

You're doing everything right Linda. I had the same hassle with my brothers, not fun. Is there anyway you can move him up closer to you? That way it would be so much easier on you. Sell his assets here to be able to take care of him, but there should be someplace a lot closer to you. If there is anything I can help you with, let me know. I'm sorry you have to do all this and do it long distance too.

I'm so sorry all of this is so stressful. It's bad enough when our parents health fails and they are in pain, much less adding in a "not so helpful" sil! I hope you get some sleep tonight.

It's so very very hard. NH care is so expensive and it's so hard when there isn't enough money to pay for it. There is a way to protect the assets but it must be done 5 years prior to the need for a nursing home. It won't help you now, but you and your husband can plan for your care to help your children avoid this kind of problem in the future.
