Dear friends ive come to the realization that my mom will be safer and will receive better care at the four seasons rehab and skilled nursing center she is to be discharged today and I honestly do not think that I can manage her and her disease process on my own without 24 hour help. She is extremely disoriented not sure if its the beginning of senile dementia or heart just being extremely confused she has been sedated to calm her down and will be transported to the four seasons convalescent on Laurel and Chandler today at 1:30. Great sorrow that I had announces to you because I promised her that I would take care of her but its gotten to the point if I dont start taking care of myself I am going to end up in the hospital. Best scenario would be that she gets stronger and in a few weeks I can bring her back home where I feel she belongs and I promised her she would be able to make her transition there . Worst case scenario would be that she would be extremely upset and disappointed about being there let go and pass from failure to thrive( A broken heart) As you can see the boundary between having a patient and me being her son has completely been blurred and I am taking everything personal She made it very clear she did not want to go to rehabilitate anywhere but I told her in the condition she was in it was impossible for her to go home we do not have a hospital bed and shes practically bedridden at this time . Me my brother and sister-in-law love her very much and we are doing but we think is best for her I am personally ready to take her on and bring her home but I realize it would be at a great consequence to my physical and mental well-being when she is home at least for the last few months I have gotten very little sleep and have been practically well I do not know really how I have been because Ive been so busy taking care of her Please keep us in your prayers and send positive energy that she may except the place and begin to recuperate and get stronger so she can at least transfer from her bed to the commode that way I can bring it back home but if for any reason she does not a simulate and get used to being there and participate in recovery and chest lets go and goes downhill then I think we wish we rather have her pass then be in the condition she is now., I sincerely believe at this point she has no quality-of-life she is always been a very vibrant strong woman but regardless how sick shes been shes always been 100% there and it breaks my heart to see her not even know where she is or who I am Bless you all and thank you for your love kindness and support I will continue to keep you filled in May Gods will be done hug and much love to all
