12:50 PM – I just got a call a bit ago from Signature Health Care of Bremen and it seems that as of right now, that is where it looks like Mom may be placed. I was really hoping for someplace in Warsaw, but I guess we have to take what we can get since Medicaid will end up having to pay for it. At around $7,500 per month at Signature, there’s no way to pay for it privately for more than 2 months with the money Mom has in savings. There’s mixed reviews for the place from what I’ve seen with just a short google search, so we’ll just have to hope that they take care of her. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I mentioned that I was pretty shocked that she was going to be placed so soon since I was told yesterday that discharges are on hold. From the sounds of it, they are willing to do it using extreme caution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are also going to be helping to get Medicaid started for her. They are going to be emailing some documentation for things I will need to gather and then we’ll go from there. This will basically be taking all of Mom’s savings until Medicaid kicks in from the sounds of it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other news, I’ll finally be putting the last load of her clothes in the dryer here in a few minutes. All dresses and button-up shirts are hung up and I’ve folded all of her jeans\/pants and shirts\/sweaters and have stacked them on her bed. The results:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Today I spent a couple of hours going through a small dresser and sorting through stuff. I’ve still got 2 drawers to go through and had to stop because my knees and back were starting to bother me. I’ve almost got the trash tote full from all the stuff I’ve thrown out, although a lot of it is clothes that were either discolored\/stained or had holes in them, plus old bed sheets. I bought a couple of new sets, so didn’t need the old ones. I’ve likely thrown about 2 30 gallon trash bags worth of junk mail away that I’ve found scattered everywhere along with a couple dozen empty ziplock bags and bank statements\/receipts from before our bank changed hands…. about 10 years ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She also has a lot of religious\/inspirational books. If anyone would like them, you are welcome to them. If no one wants them, I’ll just recycle those as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyway, there’s still so much stuff to go through and since she will be placed into a nursing home, I can probably get rid of the chair that you’ve seen in the upstairs videos and eventually try to get everyone together to see if there’s anything they would like. Then, hopefully set my waterbed back up and sleep in it again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ll post again once I’ve got some more news. Stay safe! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
