I found a person to come in and help a few nights a week, Finally. Any input on making that transition less scary for Ma?  SignatureLESLIE ARNIM I found a person to come in and help a few nights a week, Finally. Any input on making that transition less scary for Ma? we introduced another caregiver while we were still present the first couple of times, then left for longer and longer times. -- Regards, Evelyn (to reply to me personally, remove 'sox") -- LESLIE ARNIM "Lesanne" <larnim48@hotmail.com> wrote in message news:8r%Dd.13846$3m6.5423@fe2.texas.rr.com...

Any input on making that transition less scary for Ma? SignatureLESLIE ARNIM Ah....... Seems I asked Evelyn what was strange about her newsreader but I think its your posts Lesanne, the replies to them dont come out right. For example your message above doesnt have the '>' prefixing them. Try switching html off, or aking them pure text. Anyway, my advice is to come up with a plausible story, if one doesnt work, try another the next time. Might be the truth, to help you because your ma keeps waking up, if that doesnt work, maybe she is a friend staying for a day or two, if that doesnt work, try another. -- Tumbleweed email replies not necessary but to contact use; tumbleweednews at hotmail dot com i don't have a problem with either one. gwen > I found a person to come in and help a few nights a week, Finally. Any input > on making that transition less scary for Ma? how are you doing, gwen? i am noticeably better since the hardware was removed, though still in some pain and still just barely able to use my hand. the upper arm still can't move. hoping phys therapy helps all that.

Helped to state it as they're coming to help ME, not her, when we started with home care I found a person to come in and help a few nights a week, Finally.

Any input on making that transition less scary for Ma? -- LESLIE ARNIM Hello Leslie, I guess the best thing you can do is not to worry about this. Say to your Ma it is help that you need! I was looking for a new 24/7 help for my Dad and found a 53 year old man, very experienced. I made up my mind and had some sleepless nights, how would my farther react etc. Even the idea was strange for me. But I tried and since one week they are a couple like Walther Matthau and JacK Lemmon. My farther had his first shower since 2 years :-)) because Karl is able to handle it. So, don`t worry too much, have a try..... Regards Bea Thank you Bea SignatureLESLIE ARNIM Hello Leslie, I guess the best thing you can do is not to worry about this.
