@tootall2function: Whew that was a ROUGH bathroom accident. Being a caregiver is the most rewarding thing I’ve ever done, but it has some really crappy downsides 😅 literally. I am so thankful my friend@C A R R I E came to help me today! We got so much done and had the best time! My elderly friend was in a wonderful mood, and I am enjoying seeing him get back to his old ways. Please give him some grace y’all 🫶🏽🩷 #volunteer #community #kindness #caregiver #seniorcare
If you are there Saturday morning and Meredith isn’t there until he next day what happens if he has another accident? How long is he sitting like that?

Yes, too much sugar-free stuff will actually give people diarrhea!

If he’s having frequent bed accidents, some adult pull ups might do the trick! They’re not terribly bulky, fit like underwear, and they’ll contain the mess so it doesn’t get on the bed

Just curious if he is going to be able to maybe go to a Seniors center for fun? To meet some older folks? I think you had mentioned this before. Thank you so much for all you do! So happy to see you have some support:)🥰🥰🥰

I feel like this is Florence Nightingale effect or erotic transference in the real world. Like you’re the first human who cared for him like this in decades. People need to give the man some compassion.

yeah he’s been sitting alone there for who knows how long and lonely. can you imagine every day that went by. Every moment...he must’ve felt like he was sitting in a cage, no human contact and filth everywhere to the point he accepted it. whatever made it happen is beside the point at that moment, he felt every desperate and lonely moment of it. Now he has you in his life he naturally falls in love. Life is flooding back into him. it doesn’t have to be dementia. It could be overwhelming feeling that he has to work on controlling and understanding. You’re very good to him to be patient, not that you should ever put yourself in a position to be hurt. Be blessed , be safe. 🙏

oh no....the sugar free stuff is a disaster for some people even one bite will react. My boyfriend is totally allergic to the sugar alcohol sweetener that's in many sugar free items.

At this point Caitlin, simply block the people who are giving you grief about this. It’s not worth the stress and you having to come on here to defend yourself all the time. You’re doing amazing and you’re very much appreciated. 💚

Was he able to get hooked up with the social workers at the VA? They should be able to help you get him connected with people to help you at his house!

With every caretaker, a little crap must be dealt with, whether they are 2 or 92 years old!
You deal with it - Laugh through it, but it's just a part of the job

Hug’s, good friends and CAVIAR! Good to meet Kerry, does she like caviar too? A good week achieved 💪🏼 That’s a win and for now that’s enough.. The toilet issue, common and unfortunate sadly. The appreciation for care givers needs to be screamed from the rooftop’s! Have a good week hun! 🤎🤎🤎
