The following scenarios are presented as though seen through my mother’s eyes. She lived in two different nursing homes over a four-year period. The first purpose of these scenarios is to share experiences with which I had to work for the benefit and protection of my mother. The second purpose is to offer options, other than suing, to resolve anger and pain that others cause you through careless and thoughtless words and deeds. The third purpose is to let you know, that these are RNs, LVNs, and aides in nursing homes who care greatly about their residents. The fourth purpose is to stimulate your thinking about optional plans with which you can live out your life, other than in a nursing home. This is as important as spiritual, pre-need, and financial planning. Finally, the last purpose is to suggest that no one person can meet all the physical, psychological, social, leisure, and requirements for another human being.
