What would you do with your mom ?
My mom had a stroke last month. She came home with me 2 days ago. She weighs 227 I use a hoyer lift to move her back an forth. I weigh 125 ,have had two shoulder surgery's. It is a lot of work night an day, she can't talk so it makes it even harder. I love her. She begged me to get her out of the nursing home. An my heart an back went out to her. I don't have much help with her at all. An the nursing home keeps coming to mind. But I can't do it to her. An at the same time I am wore out my back hurts, what would you do ?
My dad died 10 years ago, my sister works an has fibermialga , an my brother is dying from liver disease. She has many nurse but none help with the lifting, just meds, speech, physical therapy.

HI, SORRY ABOUT YOUR MOM. DO YOU HAVE A DAD OR SIBLINGS ? DOES MOM HAVE ANY SISTERS OR BROTHERS THAT CAN HELP ? CONTACT WELFARE ( SOCIAL SERVICES .) IF YOU ATTEND CHURCH , ASK THE MINISTER FOR SUGGESTIONS. YOU'RE A VERY THOUGHTFUL DAUGHTER. MOM'S BLESSED TO HAVE YOU. I WILL PRAY FOR BOTH MOM AND YOU. G.B.Y. BOTH.

Check with insurance or other agencies to see if they will pay for a home health aid (or nurse) instead of a nursing home. Search the Internet for your area to see if there are some agencies that wil help out.
