Today my brother and I went to a facility on 10th street that was recommended to us. It was unbelievable. The place was beautiful and the residents were not in the hallways staring out into space. People seemed to be enjoying their life and time together. The facility was amazing with a pool and hot tub, putting green, beauty salon, billiard room, theater room, and so much more. The prices were reasonable and it seemed like a place where my dad would be able to maintain his dignity. They have a doctor there everyday and a new doctor is starting next week to help cover the weekends. I have to say it was an answer to prayer. Every other facility has either been too expensive or just trashy. I truly believe that his former facility is responsible for his decline. I think that if we move him back there they will kill him. It amazes me that we allow places that take care of the most needy to be substandard. Dad may have a new home as soon as tomorrow. I hope this one is a happy one.
Sincerely,
Debbie
