I hate to think of what lies ahead. I hope and pray I never need a nursing home. I have had a rude awakening to the state of care in this country for our elderly. Mom is running out of funds and we had to transfer her out of the luxury $5000/mo home to a Medicaid facility,. It is dreary, not secure and scares me. She is totally freaked out. I am afraid she will bolt and get hit by a car on US1. This all breaks my heart. We are trying to get her transferred. She is so lost. Yesterday I saw a rage in her that I have never seen before. Who could blame her? This is hell she is living. total and complete hell made of confusion and fear. and she can't communicate her thoughts well. How horrible for her. My hear breaks for this wonderful lady. She was at moments almost like an animal. I felt so sick inside.
We are kinder to animals. We put them gently to sleep when they are suffering. We won't do that for humans.
