Okay, I wrote a book of a post, but I'll have to make this short. My cuts aren't working. The last official update was while Mom was still in the nursing home. In a nutshell
( Read more... )
She could go on Medicaid, but they are so strict regarding financial assets. Not that she has much, but she would have to cash in her 3 life insurance policies as they are whole life policies, and since she owns the house outright, really needs to have money in reserve to replace and repair stuff. We have been slowly building her savings in preparation. The water heater is on it's last legs, and the way it's connected is no longer up to code, so will have to have more extensive work done when it is replaced. The washing machine gets HEAVY use, so expect it to not last much longer. Both appliances are already past their prime. We had originally applied for Medicaid, but as we learned of those restrictions, decided against completing the process. For us it will be most beneficial if she has to go into a nursing home permanently. And I really don't mind taking care of her... it's just the knowledge that I can never get a break that depresses me. Thanks for the hugs, they are appreciated.
You do have a lot on your plate. I'm sorry to hear that your mom has gotten worse and that you broke your ankle. And about the computer and paycheck issues.
*big hugs* and I wish there was something I could do besides keep you in my prayers!
Again, it's so good to see you online again though. That's one good thing.
Thanks. Prayers are the absolute BEST thing you can do, so just keep it up! :D
I'm really happy to be back online. It's perking me up quite a bit. Though I wish I weren't so tired, so that I'd have more time. And wish I could figure out why my lj cuts weren't working in this entry. I literally wrote a book of a post, and tried twice and finally had to delete it and write a shorter one. {{hugs back}}
