She refuses assisted living yet she needs 24/7 care. Not life saving, she's on hospice service, full dnr. I cannot care for her as I must work and also have a disabled husband. She has a friend across the country who has packed up her whole life to move in and take care of my mom. And they have never met face to face.TiredRPhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13294796830418609134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-86247449430802559212012-01-19T16:39:32.068-05:002012-01-19T16:39:32.068-05:00thanks for sharing this storythanks for sharing this storyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-85210536991623649832012-01-19T11:16:25.403-05:002012-01-19T11:16:25.403-05:00Thanks for sharing!Thanks for sharing!scrubmamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06989026121643885799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-58668407668867915292012-01-19T04:17:02.312-05:002012-01-19T04:17:02.312-05:00What a wonderful story!

Sometimes just being there is what keeps them alive, because they have so many memories.<br /><br />May Mr. Patient (and the community) continue to have more, happy days because people care about others.RehabRNhttp://rehabrn.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-8489894348930703592012-01-18T19:14:28.958-05:002012-01-18T19:14:28.958-05:00Just something in my eye here, I'm not tearing...Just something in my eye here, I'm not tearing up.

In the community that I live in the group is called Project Open Hand. They mostly deal with low income seniors, but usually better off seniors can purchase the meals for a small price. The meals arrive, delivered by a volunteer whose job it is not only to deliver the meal, but check up on the senior. If the situation becomes critical, they know how to plug the senior into other services, allowing seniors to stay in their homes. These are well monitored programs that benefit the entire population they serve. I'm glad that your patient had that resource, and that his parents kindness is being returned to him, but not all your patients will be that lucky.Lisa https://www.blogger.com/profile/09324961653370110887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-77085888625454180842012-01-18T11:18:25.580-05:002012-01-18T11:18:25.580-05:00People are so quick to jump on negative stories, b...People are so quick to jump on negative stories, but don't report the positive ones.
