Mean …
Senile people suck!
Heh. Can I say that? No, I suppose not. I mean, she’s my grandmother and all. But it’s just that, well, she’s always been ornery (what a great English word!), but now… god help us, she’s senile AND ornery. My dad is seemingly a man of infinite resourcefulness, but she seems to have even HIM at his wits end.
It’s like … karma … for all the senile jokes I’ve made over the years. =P
So… yeah. Life will calm down a LOT in that regard (we hope!) once the grandmother is comfortably settled in her new assisted living facility.
That is all.
Hooray for assisted living, helping families dump off the unwanted elders since… well since whenever assisted living came to be. Sell the house and get a nice persian rug!
Actually, the irony is that all of this headache has been to move her close to the family, rather than letting her move to a retirement home in Duluth.
