Things went well. Of course I pushed after returning from the Dr's
(physch) appt to see what the meeting was to be about.....The mystery
was really quite simple. It was mainly about money.

Change his room. They are going to take him out of the room for two
which costs less (though he has been alone in there since he entered ,as
respite.
They know I am no longer able to take care of him. I"ve heard no more .
And hope this continues..
My guess is they expect a vacancy--enough said.

Hi Florence,

Either that, or they would prefer not to have him in a room that conceivably
might be shared oneday, since he has shown a tendency to get upset.

In any case it is probably good for him, since he probably is more
comfortable and relaxed with the privacy.

Have a great holiday!

Regards,
Evelyn

Yes Evelyn, they are afraid he might
have another incident.(for want of a better word) I suspect this was
something quite minor because the home manager & RN said they witnessed
it.
He will be closer to the nurses'station with a window overlooking the
entrance & a few steps from the common room.

I am trying to put the best spin on the change. Of course, it's
upsetting.
& difficult. I believe he is moving onto another stage. & I went back
on Lexapro,

Florence
