OT April Chit Chat

[nuthatch]

((((HUGS)))) for you, Cat. As Peg said, one day at a time. We're all hoping you make a full recovery soon.

[Sunshine]

So glad that you are back Cat. ... You are one tough Cat—-but we knew that...

[Sunshine]

To ALL:
Am thinking we should start a separate thread for Cat and also one for Rose? What think you?

Otherwise, their very harrowing struggle could get lost in the chit chat thread?

Sunshine,

Here is the thread for Rose: Only registered and activated users can see links., Click Here To Register...

Cat, thank you for making the effort to communicate with us. How very scary. I hope your progress to your best function I’d speedy.

Mom had a good day yesterday and two good nights. Peter has to leave this afternoon. I will probably have to cancel my Thursday CT scan.

I asked the moderator about a thread about Rose but the suggestion was to put a post in the Chitchat thread because there was already a thread in the Child Neurology forum.

Catdancer posted her information where she wanted it. She may have had good reasons for not wanting to call so much attention to her illness.

There are people on the Internet who troll around looking for vulnerable people. People on this forum are vulnerable.

I'll see what can be done though.

[Howie]

Well, here's my opinion. Just posting the news of Rose, or Cat, gets everyone's attention and comments just being on this post.

Thank You

Jim and I thank you all so much for your condolences, love, prayers and support.

I am posting updates on Jonathan's thread in Child Neurology. Jim is very ill right now, requiring a great deal of care. We are working through everything as best we can.

We love you all and keep you in our prayers.

Love & Light,



Rose

Hi Rose, thanks so much for updating us again and please continue to do so in your thread if/when you feel up to it. I still can't even imagine what must be going through your mind after seeing Jon receive CPR etc. That would emotionally scar me on so many levels.

I posted the link to Jon's thread earlier in the conversation but if anybody needs it again here it is Only registered and activated users can see links., Click Here To Register... Please feel free to leave your thoughts and messages for Rose there so it doesn't get buried on Chit Chat if that is what you are all worried about.

I got a lovely message from Rose. As usual she has a clear and loving reaction to the situation.

[Sunshine]

IVIG alll day tomorrow. See you Thursday....

[Virginia]

Sunshine, hope it goes well and gives you a lift.

Well......guess who was a no-show today. She called just a little while before she was to come. I know Laura has problems with her daughter, but I don't want to be taken advantage of. Just because she thinks she can get away with something and use this on and on is not a good excuse. It is hard to know what to do. If I knew she was really needed at home it would be one thing, but I don't want her using this. If she doesn't want to keep coming that is fine, but just tell me.

I dusted down stairs today, and while the refrigerator is about empty of food I took the meat and vegetable drawers out and washed them and did the shelves and the side door.

I washed two loads of clothes and I have to put clean linens on my bed.

Right now I am resting my legs.

Virginia,, I don't think you need to put up with this kind of treatment,, tell her, you give her 30 days,or there is other people who needs a job,,

We have baby kittys,, Maggie May the mama, its her first litter, she is really a good mama,,

We split wood today,, I ran the controller,, we got more to split tomorrow,,its ok,, I sit on my scooter,, next to the control,, Joe watches out for me,,:-)

Also planted some garden,,pulling onions, cabbages,, radishes,, that's just the beginning,, we always say, we are cutting back,, but haven't done it yet,,;lol

later

Ooh, kittens! You're sending one to Howie, aren't you, Peg, when they're old enough?

Virginia, I agree that you shouldn't have to put up with this "helper" who is helping only when and if she feels like it. If she has too many other responsibilities, she might need to face up to that. Maybe discuss her priorities with her and see if you can work out a schedule with her so that she won't keep leaving you in the lurch. It sounds as if this has been tried and it didn't work, and you may have to give her her notice as Peg suggested.

Good helpers are out there. There are some in this building who've been working for their clients for 15 years. I hope you can find one like that.

[Virginia]

Peg, I always envy your garden. Every year I read about yours and Linda's and get so hungry. I love fresh vegetables.

Agate, I am going to have a talk with Laura and just tell her if she feels she cannot be dependable (except in an emergency) then I need to get someone else. This is too much for me. I understand about her daughter being her priority. She should be, however her daughter is reportedly doing well and is going to school.

Howie, where are you?

[Howie]

Ooooh no!!! Sam is my last kitty. I have had cats all my life, and I loved them all. But I don't want a cat that will outlive me. That's not fair to the cat. I wouldn't "rest in peace" knowing someone else had to take care of a cat I had owned. So no thanks!
