Disaster Diaries:

[ultrabithorax]

My dad fell again. Which is not unusual, except he'd soiled himself in the process. He says he can't stand and when he falls he can rarely drag himself back up on his wheelchair or wherever he's fallen from, so cleanup is a major operation

Sweetheart, the wish helps more than you know.

Horrible. Can we help at all?

[ultrabithorax]

If I find I know exactly what to ask for, I will ask, and thank you for your kindness. Courage and morale are the most important things right now.

njbear is wise.

In addition to his excellent ideas, I wonder if there is a support group for caretakers somewhere either near you or online.

Thank you for this. I just shipped a summary of these recommendations to my caseworker at DVR. Excellent starting points.

Hey - I wound up being here this week end. Wanna escape for a little bit? Movie? I'd suggest Scrabble but I dont think I'm up for the thrashing I'd get. ;-)

Sorry about this weekend. How about next Saturday night?

[guywithmonsters]

I think I'm good. :-)
