[QUOTE="Lammie, post: 596656, member: 3306"] I looked at Alvarado Meadows yesterday. They are remodeling it a little at a time, as they have new owners. It's kind of a dump. I mean, just old looking. I got that pee smell when I went in there, too. Of course, my parents' room smells like that, too. I bring air fresheners and open the window when I visit to air it out. They said that they could accomodate them with the furnishings and place them together. They also have some good activities, including using the WII (video game system) in their physical therapy. I met a couple of nice ladies who lived there who were together mentally and I think they would make nice friends for my parents. My dad is an awful flirt! I am going to stop by a facility by Huguley today, as I am going to be in the area. That's about fifteen minutes from here. I talked to Dad last night and he asked him if he thought that it would be better if they could live closer to me. He said he wanted to go home, but I told him that Mom's too sick for him to care for and that it might be almost as good if he could be nearer to us. He agreed. He was pretty mellow last night. Not angry at all. We had a good talk. Mom has a rash today, they think from the anti biotic she's on. I asked them if it might be shingles, and the nurse said it didn't look like it. I've had shingles before and it was a nightmare. Still looking. Haven't talked to my sister about it yet. I can't imagine that she'd be anything but relieved to have the whole thing taken off her conscience. Not that it bothers her now. I don't care what my brother thinks. He's got nothing to do with it anyway. I'll just take care of them as I see fit. I'm the only one that's going to do it anyway. It's sad that as little as my parents have that my family is only interested in what they can get out of it instead of what they can do. I don't want any of it. I have my own stuff. I'm only interested in making sure that we don't lose family pictures.
