Money In The Bank

If you remember from an old post we were trying to sell moms van with an wheelchair lift. We did it. It sold this week. Now hope we don't need it. If hospice stops coming I might wish I had it back.But there is two services which I have used before to transport mom. And they don't cost that much so I will call on them again if needed.
On another note the aid brought mom some hospital gowns to wear. Mom will not lift her arms anymore . So we have to pull them up to get her washed, dressed or undressed and it hurts her. She holds them so tight next to her chest.I have to admit the hospital gowns make things a lot easier but I hate her wearing them. She used to wear pants all the time so every morning I would tug them up over her legs and down to change her than my sister said lets start putting her in skirts. Great idea . Only had to pull them up in the morning and down at night. The rest of the day we just lifted her skirt to change her. Shame on us . Lifting mom's skirt. But now it is hospital gowns. Like I said I hate her in them but they are so much nicer to work with. Time for bed. Night all.

Craigslists

I put mom's wheelchair van on Craiglist. I have to say it was a life saver. But now it just sets out side looking lonely. Many times the last few yrs. I have gotten bored and loaded mom up for a trip to the Sonic . The fireworks on the 4Th. , Christmas parade "last year not this year". And before she started yelling "A very bad" word with every bump her wheel chair hit we went to the mall a lot. Not to mention all the Doc. appointment's it took us to. But the last few things we did was stay in the van things. No more . Those times are gone. And we can use the money. I hope it sells fast and goes to a good home. Good bye old friend. :(
