Guest guest Posted October 15, 2004 Report Share Posted October 15, 2004 , has looked into respite care? Even just a weekend a month can make a major difference. Owens ==== What are we going to do with our mothers? I called last night; Mother is having chest pains & SOB (said it feels like last time she had bronchitis). Home Health nurse advised going to the ER, but Mother doesn't want to go. was planning to call the doc this morning, IF mother didn't give in & go to the ER. The ER there is terrible, so I understand Mother's not wanting to go, but can only stand so much. Good thing Mother's not depending on me for her care. P.
