I have experienced yet another crisis. Due to bed bugs, no service will send anyone out to take career of my mother which they have done in the past. I went though my options yesterday before I knew this. I diverted my attention to a hobby that I have in order not to get upset too much. I am now going to take a walk outside.

I may just be alright even though I am not sure of the solution to my problem. But still this makes me a little sad and agitated.

There isn't a service you can call to help deal with them?

I'm sorry there is no one to help you with your mother. You might research bed bugs on the internet and find a home solution you can do.

Glad you are taking care of yourself by taking a walk. Taking care of a sick person can be quite stressful. I had to take care of my dad.. It wasn't easy, that's for sure. Hope things get better for you.

It looks like the caretaker that ran out on me called Adult Protective Services. They just visited, and at the same time I was taking a walk. They had my mother show her the arms looking for bed bug bites. Also they have concerns that I have been giving my mother her entire dose of two pills of Namenda instead of separately. Oh, and ex-caretaker told them I straddled my mother once when she was very depressed. I told the case worker that I leaned over her. I did get on the bed to do that.

So it looks like more trouble coming my way.

You guys are a a good and helpful group of people!

UPDATE: I am rattled and agitated. I am worried. I feel what I would normally feel just before major downswings. But I think Lamictal is doing its job. So far I am treading water instead of drowning.

UPDATE: My mother is very agitated and wanted to visit her (dead) husband who is convalescing in the hospital. Latest story from her is that he is in a coma.

Please wish me the best!
