That's nice because you get therapists and nursing in the home and the rehab can be more specifically tailored to the patient. (Can you tell I preferred home health by a thousand times after working most of my career in nursing homes?  .
I hope that going AF goes well for you and I'm glad you have Carol keeping you from being alone.
Are you getting sleep now? Do you feel less manic? |
Hi sweetie,
thanks for your note.
It takes me 30 minutes to get ready for bed. so that puts me to bed around 11;15.
I feel manic still.
She will say anything she will say to get out of going to rehab.
With both sons there to talk to the social worker discharge planner...they will make sure she goes.
But after she is strong enough to go home I am all for in home health. That is unless she hires sitters 24/7 and she can't afford that.
She has a wrap on her head under her chin to keep her jaw in place...I feel so sorry for her. I wonder how long she is to wear that?
