My sister is still in the hospital. And as of yesterday, going through all motions to officially join the liver transplant list.
Her kidneys just won’t bounce back either and is starting dialysis asap. Fuck.

Anyone have experience with Board and Care homes in California? Specifically looking for a way to escalate an issue to Social Services beyond the reporting links available on their website.

I don’t have direct experience ^ but my MIL has been dealing with that kind of thing for her husband, I can ask her.
Know of a pair of Fischer Ranger 107Ti 189s (new or used) for sale? PM me.

If it is an issue of possible abuse or neglect contact the county adult protective services office. Or is that what you've already tried.

My ski bud's dad was the last WWII vet in town he was actualy physiclay in really good shape but his mind was gone for anything after 1951
So Dad really needed full time care but he was too healthy so Ski bud couldn't get Dad into the lodge, every body knew dad so they kept an eye on Dad, so people would call ski bud which was even more of a worry , i personaly pulled out behind dad on his trike and hit the 4 ways when he pulled out on the highway without looking, it takes a town to raise a kid and I guess it goes the other way too
so ski bud hired a consultant who got dad in the lodge in like 2 weeks, I guess the consultant knew how to advocate ?Lee Lau - xxx-er is the laziest Asian canuck I know

FIL is in the last few hours now... This has been so hard. When this is all over you folks won't believe the stories leading to where we are right now.

Sorry for your families loss GL. Dying is just part of life and we all won the lottery of birth to even be here, so returning to our prior state while painful to the survivors is often a blessing. Take care.
Never in U.S. history has the public chosen leadership this malevolent. The moral clarity of their decision is crystalline, particularly knowing how Trump will regard his slim margin as a “mandate” to do his worst. We’ve learned something about America that we didn’t know, or perhaps didn’t believe, and it’ll forever color our individual judgments of who and what we are.

Leave for AZ first thing in the morning. Has been taken to the ICU, is now on a feeding tube and is becoming non responsive today. Not sure I’m going to make it in time. Originally Posted by Buzzworthy

Condolences Buzzworthy. My Mom passed due to liver and kidney failure, once she went unresponsive she didn’t come back out. Turning off the machines was a hard choice for Dad and the family.

When I told her I was here her eyes opened huge and she definitely knew I was there. My parents needed me here. They aren’t doing great themselves. Time to go to work.

I know my parents are about to bury one of their kids but fuck man don’t you alienate the other while he’s trying to take fucking care of you during this godawful ordeal. I’m about to drive outta here in the morning. Jesus fuck I’m goddamn sick of all of this fucking shit.

Sorry about this Buzz. At close to end of life my Dad did a lot of things that were pretty hurtful to us kids. Looking back, I can't say that he was conscious of us or how Mum felt. Here for you

It is a very stressful time for people and how they react isn't always with kindness. Take care Buzz.
