[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Thanks for asking.  She has had two significant falls, one in which she broke her hip, that led to hospitalizations.  These hospitalizations forced her into taking BP medication.  She was just recently released from the hospital and they wanted her in some kind of assisted living but of course she refused to go.  She's back in her apartment and I hope she's maintaining her medication.   She continues to be a real holy terror.[/quote]

So sorry to hear. I take it she hasn't had an evaluation for dementia?[/quote]

My hear goes out to you. I have been through with one parent and now the other. You can have adult protective services or a nursing agency do an emergency evaluation to see if she OK for independent living.Usually these people are well trained to deal with difficult elderly. Who has financial and medical power of attorney?

Anyway, just wanted to let you know you are not alone. Maybe our moms can be roomies at assisted living. That would be a hoot...more like a horror show.[/quote]
