Back to work today...

I am back on my early am schedule. No more late nights. The ambulance came twice yesterday. The first time she refused treatment. The second time she went. She has become so nasty and vile it actually is shocking me. The social worker from home health care called yesterday and said for me to go to the courthouse and file an order to get her a psychiatric evaluation. For all of you in recovery programs you understand the value of taking care of ones self before anything. She has literally sucked the life out of me. I refuse to allow it anymore. It has been one year since my husband passed. I made a point of telling myself this is a new chapter in my life. I intend to make each day count. Life can change in the blink of an eye. No more drama folks. If I want drama I'll watch a good movie. Time to get ready for work.. PEACE!!!!

Boy, Lori, sorry to hear this. Really sorry.

You are loved.

That sounds really hard. It reminds me of the old days with my daughter. I will keep you in my prayers, Lori.

Life does change in the blink of an eye. And, yes, you do need to take care of yourself, as in "put on your own oxygen mask first." I will keep you both in my prayers.

In response to everyone- Yes it is hard. She is now going to a physical rehabilitation center and than to a nursing home. That is the best option for her, and for me too. I have done the best I can and as long as I know that in my heart that is all that matters.
