Shady Pines

So on Monday my mother took my father to look at retirement homes, something my dad said he would never go to! On Tuesday he was all in! And on Wednesday I drove with my mom to put his deposit in. In less than two weeks he will be moving into this place. It makes me sad. I guess he finally realizes that he cannot care of himself. Perhaps he is lonely, after all I spent the last 2 1/2 years with him and eight months nonstop while living at his house. Maybe now he realizes how much I did for him. Maybe he knows he shouldn't have kept me trapped there and helped my cosign an apartment. I cooked and cleaned making three meals a day for him every day, driving him everywhere as he no longer drives and picking up his medications. It’s laughable and very sad to me at the same time. We have still not spoken. So now after protesting my "bill" of care back in February, he will be paying $4,500 a month for an apartments that they all live together with activities planned and meal service. This is not a place where they give you care. So if anything happens he can push a button and I’ll call 911 just like you doing is on home. We all have choices.
