Everyday is a battle with getting my mom up and dressed...
So I have been just letting her do what she wants... If she want mixed matched shoes... If she doesn't want to take a shower... I just let her be.. Unless we have to go to a doctors appointment.. Then I just argue with her until she does it.. Why is it that older folks get to the point of not caring about hygiene? My grandmother did the same thing...
So I am on this make sure she takes her medicine and you feed her well... Anything else just go by day to see what mood she might be in.. Since I have been doing that my blood pressure has went down some.. I am not on 3 types of medication for it.. I can no longer drink so the glass of wine or a shot of tequila doesn't can calm me down anymore..
So I am choosing my battles with this woman.. In the process I am starting to put my #JetLeeChronicals into play.. To help those who are their parents caregiver to show it is ok to laugh when you really feel like crying... My mom is hilarious and there are things she does daily that will make anyone smile..
