She's Killin Me Here ... Could Use Some Tips on Living With the Elderly

I will keep you in my prayers. I am lucky that my mom lives in south Florida with my younger sister. Last year she kept telling my sister that she needed to call rescue or go to the hospital. She just turned 89 and is in better health than any of her kids. So doctor put her on Paxil and had nurse come by twice a day to check on her and take her blood preasure, always normal. One day she tells nurse she just wants to take a handful of pills and die. This backfired on her as the nurse called rescue and police and got her baker acted. A few days in the mental hospital stopped that crap as my older sister and I told her we were going to sign the papers so they would keep her in there. She decided to knock that crap off as she didn't enjoy her stay there. The bad thing is my older sister who lives about 35 miles away has started to lose her mind with depression. This has become my cross to bear as her husband is worthless. So we all have our cross to bear. I have made a plan with a diving buddy if I loose my mind to take me on a deep dive and switch me to pure oxygen and that should take care of it quick LOL. Hang tough Leanna
