That must have been hard on your mother for your father to have died so young.

2019-11-28 21:35:41 UTC  

She is but is dealing with dementia now

2019-11-28 21:35:47 UTC  

I think Mom missed Dad so much.

2019-11-28 21:36:05 UTC  

Dementia is such an evil illness

2019-11-28 21:37:12 UTC  

It was tough on my mother bc the suffering he went through and he was the man that took care of things, ya know

2019-11-28 21:37:35 UTC  

I understand that.

2019-11-28 21:37:46 UTC  

That's the way it was with their generation.

2019-11-28 21:37:52 UTC  

My great aunt never took even an aspirin

2019-11-28 21:37:53 UTC  

Dad took care of everything.

2019-11-28 21:38:17 UTC  

Mom didn't have anything to do with finances until Dad started slipping.

2019-11-28 21:38:27 UTC  

And then she wanted to pay EVERYTHiNG.

2019-11-28 21:38:34 UTC  

No, Mom, not THAT bill!

2019-11-28 21:38:50 UTC  

And she was so generous.

2019-11-28 21:38:56 UTC  

I'm sorry for what you're having to deal with at this time

2019-11-28 21:39:07 UTC  

She'd give to anyone who send a solicitation.

2019-11-28 21:39:13 UTC  

Yes that generation was awesome

2019-11-28 21:39:23 UTC  

Your aunt sounded like she was really healthy.

2019-11-28 21:39:35 UTC  

My grandma was never sick.

2019-11-28 21:39:45 UTC  

Said it was because she took a bath every day.

2019-11-28 21:39:54 UTC  

Like your father, she fell and then down she went

2019-11-28 21:39:57 UTC  

She died at 92 in a nursing home.

2019-11-28 21:40:08 UTC  

Had a stroke that sent her there.

2019-11-28 21:40:24 UTC  

oMG! Dad fell and that's what killed him.

2019-11-28 21:40:34 UTC  

He never recovered.

2019-11-28 21:41:00 UTC  

Got pneumonia and started getting confused, and just got worse, and worse, and worse.

2019-11-28 21:41:06 UTC  

Yep her too

2019-11-28 21:41:22 UTC  

Mom fell due to negligence of the facility.

2019-11-28 21:41:30 UTC  

Sent to rehab and never went hone

2019-11-28 21:41:37 UTC  

But she got pneumonia from chocking on a pill

2019-11-28 21:42:08 UTC  

Both of them went to rehab from the hospital and never went back to the apartment.

2019-11-28 21:42:55 UTC  

As far as I'm concerned, the rehab facility (same as their apartment) killed both of them.

2019-11-28 21:43:05 UTC  

I'm still cleaning out their apartment

2019-11-28 21:43:06 UTC  

Wow, same story...crazy how that works

2019-11-28 21:43:14 UTC  

They wanted us out by the 15th.

2019-11-28 21:43:29 UTC  

Yea, right, Mom just died on the 2nd - a Saturday night.

2019-11-28 21:43:35 UTC  

Then by the 30th.

2019-11-28 21:43:46 UTC  

I told them that's not happening, either

2019-11-28 21:44:15 UTC  

So they're charging us pro-rata for the $2,000+ monthly rent.

2019-11-28 21:44:21 UTC  

Can't help it.

2019-11-28 21:44:34 UTC  

I can't do it alone, and my daughters have started helping.

2019-11-28 21:44:52 UTC  

My brother spent 3 days there - about 4 hours each time, I think.
