Yes emailed across to all concerned stating facts !
Lovely advice from all & great advice from Dementia Hotline
Seems that no one is going to do anything until they see we aren’t .
Duty of care letters of complaint to medical board next
Hoping for miracle & emergency care at home package but it’s not looking hopeful

It’s very quiet here at the Alamo!

 

How lovely of you
Hugs back
Hair very curly & thick but greying fast !
Natural highlights!

Thank you

Advice much appreciated

So many going through the same thing
How sad
Thank you for your time & advice it can feel lonely doing this year in year out & I have it easy compared to some

Thank you I am grateful for the advice but am so sorry that you have this experience as well
Hopefully I will have positive news before Thursday- at least we have got the extension until a days holiday can be booked!
Can’t imagine Thomas Cook offering this sort of days holiday but who knows could be a market out there .....

 

Thank you for your advice
I have tried contacting the Carers which SW has organised but no reply since leaving messages since Saturday!
Doesn’t bode well !
I keep all information & details now have 4 years worth - one day someone will take note !
Until then ...
thank you

 

Another day & another round of phone calls chasing answers from Carers organised by social services for meal time care package

Will they do all the washing generated by Mums incontinence is that part of their remit.

Can’t get hold of Social worker as she won’t return my phone calls even after her office manager has contacted her to call us

As Mums been deemed competent by social services we have been told we can’t use her bank account to access funds to provide extra care for her. As she keeps changing her mind about what she wants !

Mum has historically sent away Carers for herself & my father - please God let it be different this time.
Like a NASA launch the time is ticking down & still we haven’t got any answers !

 

Can anybody hear you scream in cyber space ???
Rang Carers who haven’t had any information not even an address for Mum from social services

Thank god we did not let hospital discharge Mum yesterday as no care package in place until lunchtime Wednesday

Yet sw email states Tuesday!


Care package in place not for incontinence or for delusions

What are these people playing at?

So now sent them confirmation from hospital email on what’s what !

Why is this happening to people all the time

If I could I’d release equity from Mums property & move her near me / pay for care / build a granny flat - but we are not allowed to!

So have chased up Doctors now as it will be their problem when they discharge Mum on Thursday
I think there could be more posts soon....

 

I have just posted the phone call to Carers
It’s unbelievable
Care package wasn’t in place for original discharge date!
Emailed my mums info over to them as they had no contact details for her or me- not even mums address!!
No medical info
Been told it was a very basic check she’s eating drinking & taking meds!
Carers not happy!

I think I might actually be loosing my sanity as this can’t be real - surely

Not contacting SW anymore

Doctors surgery informed of the latest **** up!

Hopefully as the ball or poor Mum will be bounced back into their court/ duty of care they might have something to say about all this!!

 

It’s my Mum..
I’m backing away now but it’s breaking my heart

 

I will if I can see the keypad through tears!
Thank you all for the support
