Well, as most everyone knows, after the last blog the tests were bad and the doc didn't think she had long to go, so off to Hospice she went. It took a couple of weeks but I came to terms with going to lose my sis. That lasted just over a month and she hit a plateau and quit deteriorating. So then she couldn't stay in Hospice. So had to go back to a nursing home. That's created all kinds of problems. Because she isn't in the nursing home for rehab, none of her insurances will pay for it. So we've had to file for state mecicaid. What a hassle.

Now she's awake a lot, getting dressed most days and will carry on a conversation like she used to. The mind isn't all there and sometimes it's what the hell is she talking about!! but I'll take it. I'm afraid it may just be a manic phase of her bi-polar but what ever it is, I hope it stays for a while. It's nice to have her back!!!

What a hassle all that is medical care can be, especially when it comes to insurance or even Medicare. They had my mom back and forth from nursing home to hospital again and again, all to comply with some regulations of care they had. I hope the Medicaid comes through quickly and that worry will be taken care of, at least.

I'm so glad your sister is doing some better and you can enjoy time with here again to some extent. I read how she asked for Wendy's Chili...LOL..and you made sure she got some. She's so lucky to have you. Hang in there and know that we are upholding you and your sister in our prayers, Marianne.

Bless you,

Janet
