  Several have asked what else needed to be done for our financial with an attorney. We have already done everything but take hubbies name off everything. This will be done soon as he could be facing... palliative care,...or hospice care. Which could come at any time.....but to do this we need to get things where they can't be touched. It's a process that an attorney must handle. And if at any time Medicaid needs to come on board we are ready and have all our ducks in a row. I know most of you are already set in this but this is something we let slide and now trying to get it all done. Right now hubby is holding his own and we don't need the extra care but down the road...yes it will be necessary. Our neurologist says out of all her patients only one tried to keep the loved one home and it turned out not good. So the Lord knows when, where and how this will all work out. We have always had insurance and etc through hubby's jobs but now we do what has to be don...

  If you see my camper listed on marketplace ..yes we are selling it...hubby can't get in and out now with his Parkinson...he falls ..so to keep him safe and to let someone else enjoy my camper I am selling it...I thought it would be harder to let go ..but I am ok with it...time to move on...

  Our journey home was pretty pleasant. Just beautiful out but hot. We stopped 4-5 times to let hubby get something cold to drink and move around for his legs. He didn't say much of anything until we got outside of Winchester. Hubby are you taking us home. I said "yes". He says, "well it should be almost dark when we get there". This was at 2 this afternoon. I said, "no we are just a few miles from home." He says "we have to go up the river yet" ...I said "no we are going up Webb road to Tammany then to the house"..He sets up in his seat and says "no, I want to go home to Weippe"...I said 'what we live in Lewiston we left Weippe in 1984"...He says "take me home"....finally I say "ok, I will take you home to Weippe in a couple weeks but right now I am tired and we are going up Webb road to tammany to a house to shower and rest...He says "ok, then take me home to Weippe"...ok hubby wi...

Been a crazy weekend...we left Lewiston at 6:30 pm and made it to Nampa at 1 in the morning. Went to see the neurologist on Friday and she was very helpful. Hubby has gained weight and is doing pretty good. She wants me to get everything out of his name and prepare for the future. So kids and I will finish all the legal stuff and get things all set up for future. But no one knows really what the future holds....the old song goes "I don't know about tomorrow I just live from day to day" such a good song. All the way down I listened to Joel Osteen on book on tape reading about his book "Break Out"...I got so much from listening to him. So actually, I am good this time...nothing hit me hard. So the rest of the time down here we have just been having fun, ran to daughter's neighborhood yard sales...was so fun. Shopping, out to dinner, playing with grandkids, changing daughters' shades and drapes and just a nice time. I was super tired the first day but ...

  Do you remember reading and learning about the leprosy camps and islands etc...well in today's world it is Lewy Body Dementia....as soon as you tell assisted living, homes etc....oh, our loved one has Lewy Body Dementia...they make a face at you and say "oh that is a tough one"...we cannot help ....our facility is not set up for that. And you walk away thanking you are diseased....even picking up your prescriptions they ask do you understand this medicine....I say "yes my hubby has Lewy Body Dementia"....oh my goodness..."I am so sorry" that is a hard one. I know I am not the only person out there with a loved one with these diseases....but they treat you like...oh, my ..well good luck....Anyway we are good here today...picked up the meds and getting the dodge packed and ready for a few days away....heading to Meridian for the neurologist appointment ...daughter and her family are always there to help with the new appointment and the changes we need...
