Thank you. Nursing homes have gotten worse over the years. I may not be able to find one that I could feel okay about. But I plan to look at two.

I am awfully depressed. His stay in that place for two weeks seems to have caused more decline in him. The first week he seemed okay. But the second week he was going down, especially mentally. So I took him home a day early.

I remember when there were better nursing homes. These chain corporations that run these nursing homes for mostly Medicaid patients run crap holes. A place can sort of look okay when you walk through it quickly. You have to go there day after day, watching what does and doesn't get done for your loved one. He got only 2 showers in 13 days.

I think what will happen to me someday. I could very well end up in one of these awful places. I think I would do absolutely anything to avoid that.

I wish my life was over.
