I have to say that for all that, things have been much easier since Dad moved into the home, even for him. Mom has been able to rest as much as she needs to, and whenever she needs to without worrying about him or being awakened by him. For his part, Dad is pretty content where he is, and has made up several scenarios in his mind about why he’s there and not home with Mom that all seem credible and acceptable, and is socializing and getting physical activity. I need to travel there more frequently, and that’s about 140 miles round trip with the shopping and the nursing home visit, but that’s still better than before because I’m not dealing with two stressed-out parents and a hospital.

Well, push came to shove, and you did a very good job of pushing without being a bully. I agree with staying at home as long as possible, but dementia is pretty impossible for one person to handle 24/7. Hugs to you for handling all this while unmedicated.

[…] HMEC – Human Mammary Epithelial Cells. They were put into a container, allowed to reproduce, and then they were checked to see if the right number of cells were made after specific numbers of generations. There were six containers of these cells. Once enough generations had passed and there were enough cells, their DNA was tested with the bisulfate test (illustrated in my earlier post.) […]
