I've already informed my family no nursing homes for me !

So where are they gonna put you tomorrow???

I'm sorry for your loss.
I wish I remembered my Bible better, something like, It is not as though we have no hope?

The old story, this grumpy old man, left word for a friend to go to his closet after his funeral, take a brown wrapped package, and burn in in the backyard.

FIREWORKS. laugh

Seen cattle bolt when they hear the abattoir truck 500 yds distant.


Don't ask me about my military service or heroic acts...most of it is untrue.

Not the worst thing.

I’m going with Jimbo on this one. 83 is a good run, and to pass at home or even in the hospital without ever having to darken the doorway of a nursing home, to me is a huge win.

Condolences, saddlesore.

🦫

Thanks, but his last three years, he cashed out hard. He was in and out Hospice care during those three years. Thanks for all the kind thoughts

Our forefathers did not politely protest the British.They did not vote them out of office, nor did they impeach the king,march on the capitol or ask permission for their rights. ----------------They just shot them.

Most depressing place I can imagine.

I don’t know Wabi or qualify for a “ lovely friend “, but you need to realize that assisted living facilities/nursing homes vary as to care provided.

My grandmother and her sister moved to one here that provided care from assisted living in an apartment together all the way to a hospital bed setting that was like an ICU.

Both died there with the best care you could imagine

I know a lot about nursing homes, rehabs, skilled nursing facilities.
Mother, grandparents, aunts, inlaws. 2 different states.

I also know about Step Down and ICU at the ‘big house’ aka the hospital. A hospital bed does not define “ICU”.

All he has to do either elaborate or say he misspoke

Don’t try to kiss his ass or school me

Same here. Wife's grandmother was in one for 7years.Wife's mother for a year or so. Both were a lot happier there than at home. It was like a city itself.
