It all started with me sitting at my desk when the phone rang it was care home giving me 28 days notice as they did not feel they could cope with mum trying to escape anymore (She has only been there 2 months and managed to escape 3 times). I keep trying to explain to her she can only go out with me or husband but she cannot understand, of course, why she cannot go for a walk when she fancies one.
Had a few tears over that as had hoped she would settle and now have to find somewhere else in a hurry and there are not many in this town that are nice and do not want big top up's.
Then when I got home from work found no sign of my son who phoned me 15 minutes later saying he was with Nan as the home had phoned and wanted someone to go and try to calm her down! I tried to talk to her but she was having none of it all I could get was "I'm not staying in this stinking sh**hole of a place" so I'm afraid I told my son to come home and left the staff to try to calm her down. Although I feel bad doing that I have been at work all day and feel a bit miffed that they would ring up and as nobody else was in ask my 15 year old son to try and calm his nan down, what the hell do they get paid for?
Ok moan over I feel better for writing it down and stops me going and buying a packet of cigs (I gave up 8 years ago). If anyone knows any decent care homes in the vicinity of Hastings let me know.
Many thanks to all. x
