It is do upsetting when their skin is so thin @Shaz51 .

Haven't spoken to sister yet but got a message that Mum is going into respite care @Shaz51, she will stay there until she gets a permanent placement at a nursing home (and praying one will come up in her preferred location).

Re: Not sure what to do !!!

Praying for you too @Former-Member

My FIL was able to stay in respite care until his place turned up at the closest nursing home

Please tell your SIL to keep strong and to get the that you want

As they will male you feel you have no choice but you do xx

My poor uncle was put in a home which was over 2 hours away from his family

The head nurse saw me the other day and talking about placing a room for mum

Thankfully the temporary care is fairly close to my brother @Shaz51 but an extra 10 mins travel for Sis.
