I talked with my brother last night and although he was pleasant to me he was extremely ugly to mom. It shook her up and upset her. Time for some tough love. I’m going to visit him after my therapy today. We’ll have a talk. We were already concerned about him coming home because he’ll do the minimum possible to care for himself. I can’t let him take us out with him. Truth be told, he needs to be in a nursing home. It’s just taking time for my sister and mom to realize that.
I would love to go to the movies to see Suicide Squad although I doubt it will be as good as the one with Will Smith. I don’t feel like I can with the COVID-19 case rise in my city. Frustrating and unfortunate. Can’t do much safely.
I hope everyone has a peaceful day.  |
Your spa day sounds nice. I'm jealous! I wish I had someone to massage my left foot. Something has been amiss with it for a while.
It certainly can be tough the idea of putting a loved one in a nursing facility, but it makes things easier. Obviously, for my sister, brother, and me, but really my father is happier there than at home. He never plans to return home. Luckily his Long Term Care insurance finally now pays for it. I hope your brother either has such a thing or that Medicare or Medicaid would pay. Given your brother's condition, I'd think something could be worked out.
