Just got off the phone with Mom as she is about to turn in for the night. Physically she is doing GREAT! She is also doing well with her continence...however, she is still really really confused. Tonight she told me that the darn raccoon bit her again on her leg and that is why it hurts so bad and why she is so sleepy. We are really hoping she will cognitively get better once she gets back here.....which will be next Wednesday. sigh. Don't get me wrong....I miss and love her very much but also believe Touro is the place she needs to be but unfortunately her insurance disagrees. They will deliver her to us if she goes to a nursing home.....so we are trying to find her one for a short period of time to where in the meantime we can try to get her into an adult daycare facility. She has already been approved for the EDA LA adult daycare program....thanks to Johnny for signing up for it. There are 2 places here in town and I have already been to one that a friend of mine Aunt goes to and was pleased. I will go by there again tomorrow to get the paperwork for Johnny and I to fill out. The social worker will get back in touch with me on what she found out about the new list of 5 nursing facilities tomorrow (as Mom has already been denied to 4 places on the old list so far). Willis Knighton actually said, "we do not feel that Pamela Rosado will ever cognitively get better". I was so angry and hurt.....so was Johnny. I hope they are not right and that Mom SOARS with improvement to prove them wrong.
She is so sweet and told me to tell everyone "not to worry about her bc she is A ok" :)
