[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good lord op. You are one cold daughter…[/quote] I disagree, I feel this woman's concern and feel that it's worth discussing and looking for a better way to manage. I have spent the better part of the last 5-year shuttling my mom to and from doctors appointments. Its time consuming. After spending the better part of day to get her to a doctor, who ended being a no-show at an appointment, I had a long talk with her PCP and asked if we could narrow down the doctors she was seeing, the tests etc. It was such a beneficial conversation, we really evaluated her care, her needs, her medications and re-worked her appointment schedules. Obviously we get her to the specialists, and annual check-ups but there was a lot we could cut out, and cut down. Its still a time-consuming job to manage the appointments, the transportation and follow up - but I would recommend re-visiting what you are doing and what isn't essential. [/quote]
