Senior Health & Aging Support Group
Aging is an important part of all human societies reflecting the biological changes that occur, but also reflecting cultural and societal conventions. There is often considerable social pressure in many societies to sustain denial of the aging process. Join this community to discuss general issues with aging and senior health.
I'm not having a very good day. I mistakenly moved into this personal care home after the one I had been living in for 3 years closed in March. My life has taken a turn for the worse practically every day. The Administrator is a B--ch. I can't afford the rent. After I pay it, I have only $100 left for the month. And my prescription copays were $200 last week. Do the math. I have a caseworker who is no help. I have no family and am not a native of this community. Today I was told that my laundry day is WEDNESDAY even though the card on my door says SATURDAY. The Boss/Administrator is not here since it's a weekend. According to the Administrator, I have to get rid of the cardboard boxes that I brought with me when I moved by the end of the month. That gives me 3 days. This room is half the size of the room I had at the other place. I don't know what to do with everything but I do know I don't want to get rid of any of my possessions. There are rules like we can only have 10 outfits per season and only 10 books. And for this I'm pay $1300 a month. The food is terrible and not "nutritionally balanced" like it's supposed to be. I know I need to get out of here. If I move to an apartment (that's assuming I pass the credit check), I'll need to start all over with acquiring furniture, kitchen stuff, etc. I tried finding some support in this community and haven't succeeded so far. I need help!

Hope the dog days of summer aren't getting you down!


from readers on there.
churches, try calling any of them. Good luck to you. Finding a place without furniture would be at least out of where you are now.
