February 17, 2020

8:40 AM – She came downstairs to use the bathroom and then went up and sat on her bed. The topic so far seems to be being married to Warren Murphy for 5 years and him dying of a heart attack and thanks to him she is a lifetime member of the Legion. Something chasing her. Her sister Faye. Nobody lets her drive and her Echo is worth more than she bought it for (nope, only about $1,100.) “I’m not going to talk to you. You don’t belong here.” “Nobody’s supposed to say the F word here. I’m not going to put up with it. Neither is Jesus.” So, pretty much all over the place this morning.

At about the 18 minute mark, she wants to know why someone is trying to kill her. She then yells, “Stop it!” She moved into the TV room right after I cut this off to upload it.
She mentions that someone has Alzheimer’s.. they can’t control their mouth. She asks, “What is wrong with you? You keep repeating yourself over and over and over and over.” Someone won’t leave her alone and is giving her a headache. She covers her ears as if that will stop it. Obviously, there’s no voices since the camera is not picking anything out except for her voice. She’s crying because they won’t leave her alone apparently.
She doesn’t say who won’t shut up or what they are saying, but they are giving her a migraine headache. She starts getting louder with her Shut Ups. She mentions a few times that warren died of a heart attach and died in her arms. She has forgotten that he had a stroke and she found him. He lived for a few years in a VA nursing home after that. I don’t think she was there when he actually died. She gets up, walks into her room and closes the door. She’s still talking, but I can’t make anything out.
Something about a nursing home. She says she’s trying to figure out how to get everything packed into her van?? It looks like there’s a bunch of stuff piled up on her bed. Someone is not her daughter. “Look what you’re doing to me.” Camera drops off.

12:15 PM – I’ve got to get ready and head to Warsaw. Gotta stop at the Auditor’s office to get homestead credit then to insurance company for homeowner’s insurance. I’ll check in on Mom when I can.

3:15 PM – Everything is taken care of with the house except for paying it off! While on my way home, I checked the cameras and Mom was sitting downstairs. She wasn’t saying anything for the minute I was listening, but when I got home, she was still sitting there. I asked her how she was feeling today and she told me that she had a headache, so I gave her 2 Tylenol. While she was still sitting down here, I had some stuff to put away upstairs and snapped a picture of her bedroom:

I don’t know where she thought she was going since we seem to be at a stand-still with the nursing home, but she is ready for it wherever it is.

3:30 PM – She seems pretty emotional today since the voices won’t shut up. I’m not intervening since things seem to go south when I do these days. I get the “I don’t want to argue” stuff and when I try to press the issue, she just seems to get pissed at me. Best I can do is make sure she eats something and make sure she’s taking her medications. Anyway, she’s not as talkative right now. She says Shut UP at one point and says something about pythons and not being able to see them right now. If anything ramps up, I’ll be sure to post some video of it. As of right now, it’s pretty much the same thing that’s in the earlier videos for today.

This is just a short clip where she tells someone that they are dead, she didn’t cause it and they need to move on. Maybe she’s seen too many Ghost Hunter type shows on the Travel Channel.
She’s being accused to lying and steeling again. God told her he was going to take care of it. She claims she bought this house when the kids were little (Troy was the only one living with her at the time.) Right after that, she says someone told her she’s been accused of grand theft auto. Mentions the pink house. Someone is telling her the one of us is not her kid. She thinks someone killed Warren now.
She’s getting a little louder now. Oh gross.. She says, my Son… My husband Shannon… Somebody said, somebody said. Someone has a beautiful voice. Cutting it off and going to get her to eat some supper so she can take her pill.

5:45 PM – She came down without any fuss and I helped her get her stuff together. I played nice and pointed out the window at the snow and said Yuk. She smiled about that. Any time I’d walk out of the kitchen, she’s start talking. She called me out at one point and when I didn’t go right away, she came out and said, “Someone told me I’m not supposed to be here.” I just reminded her that we are the only ones here and she said, “I know” and shrugged.

Someone won’t stop repeating themselves constantly. She can’t even eat her supper in peace it seems. 8:20 mark, they are repeating themselves so much, she wonders if THEY should be in a nursing home.

6:30 PM – Mom came out here after putting her stuff away from her supper and said, “I think we have a problem in the basement. Jerry Feester, and officer, might have been shot.” I told her no one has been shot, I would have heard it. She seemed to be OK with that and went upstairs where she flipped through a magazine. She came back downstairs a few minutes later and said, “Shannon, somebody says there’s a big python outside.” I told her that it’s too cold outside for pythons. She said that she knew, but that’s what somebody said. I told her that they are lying to her then, because pythons just can’t live in this kind of cold.

You tell Shannon yourself because he doesn’t believe me. At about 7:50, did Jerry change his name to Gary? Tells a cop to run to the neighbors, they’ll know how to get ahold of a policeman. “I’m Sandy, you know me as Mom.” I guess the neighbors showed us how to cut up pythons and cook them… yummy! (BTW, the TV isn’t on. This is all playing in her head.) “You don’t have a list of officers you work with?” (What kind of cop is this? Keystone?) She’s getting louder. The cop said that SHE shot the python.
She has gotten loud enough that I can actually hear her upstairs without the camera.
More of the same. You can tell she’s irritated with this cop, who’s also supposedly her best friend. Lots out loud sighs and the raised voice says it all. It’s amazing that this cop survived long enough to retire.. lol

8:00 PM – Mom came down to tell me that Jerry Feester says there’s a great big python in the neighbors yard. She said that she can’t help him and asked him why he didn’t have a list of other policemen. I commented that he’s not a very smart policeman then is he? She agreed. I looked at the temperature outside (34 degrees) and told her that if there’s a python out there, it’s dead. They can’t survive that cold of a temp. She seemed satisfied with that answer and went back upstairs. She was quiet for about 4 minutes and back to basically calling Jerry an idiot because he didn’t know how to get help.

8:30 PM – It’s been the repetitive python dilemma up until just a minute ago when following a comment about me saying it’s too cold for pythons, she suddenly switched to the Veronica/Victoria girl that she caught going through people’s purses. She actually says Victoria’s name, but I think they are the same person. The girl also tells Mom that she is her daughter. It suddenly shifts to someone upstairs saying “Shut the F up.” She says, “No one is supposed to talk that way in this house.” Well #@*!. I better watch it, I might get arrested for saying the F-word! OK, had to throw in a little humor tonight before cutting it off and taking a nap so I can stay up most of the night and sleep tomorrow for work.
