On break at work.

I have been teeter-tottering whether or not to post this on here.

I was wondering if you could please say a prayer to my folks. My step-dad had been in psychriatic ward because of his increasing dimentia. He has been in there for about a week. He will get out Monday, but both my mother and his doctors think he should still be institutionalized.

My mother does not have enough funds to keep him in more than 120 days. Unofrtunately, due to his medicaid she will be unable to afford a nurse during the days she is at work.

I feel so helpless and torn. I do not know what to do. I want to help.

Last night, after work, I visited him in the psych ward. He was right. The psych ward is like being in prison. I jokingly told him at least his food was better than prison food. It was hard not to cry seeing him there. Instead, I cried in the car while driving home.

Oddly enough, I am comforted I am working today. My coworkers and customers keep my spirits up. Working til late evening then cat sitting for friends.

Thank you to my friends last night for keeping me going.
