Quick grandma update--buttonless
We called grandma on Sunday for the first time in a few weeks. She did answer, but said she was tired and going to take a nap--she'd gone downstairs at 8:30 and played trivia, then stayed down so long she went straight to lunch, and now she needed to rest. Understandable! We were happy to finish the phone call quickly. This is exactly how we wanted this to go.
Monday, there was a meeting in the building. My aunt and uncle attended. The building is removing the call buttons from the bathrooms on her floor, entirely, like they're pulling them out and plastering over the walls. Wow. That was one of the things my family liked about this place, but then again grandma is on the independent living floor, so she's supposed to be in good enough shape to not really need that.
(Meanwhile, another resident apparently told mom or another family member grandma should be in assistant living. She's a young whippersnapper of 91.)
Grandma had her nail appointment on Tuesday, but found out the salon doesn't do acrylic nails, so we'll have to figure something out about that...but that's not my problem. I say just take them off and she can go back to natural nails.
Mom's supposed to go up there today because something needs to be notarized, maybe with the car situation.
