[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sometimes it is like gaslighting, in that you have to lie. “You need to move into the independent/assisted living place after your surgery. You cannot recover alone at home. [i]It will only be temporary[/i]”. Then you have to lie and say, ‘your place isn’t ready yet”. “I don’t know why your car won’t start, we need to get it fixed.” ‘Why don’t we figure out a way for me to pay your bills while you recover from x.” Then eventually, they feel like they are home and have adjusted.
