7:23a.m.Well, I’m faced with another day in this hellhole of a nursing home. I’ve was neglected again last night. I had to tell the nurse I needed changed when she gave me my meds. That was the only time I got help. This was around eight. I wasn’t changed again until they got me up at five. So I spent another night laying in piss. I hate this gd place

9:26a.m. I am at having a lousy morning. The Hoyer pad was hurting like pure hell . They just put me back in bed. I thank God I’m off that frigging pad. I hate being in bed all day. But I just cannot stand sitting on that pad. Chococolatechip says I could be getting ulcers from it. I hope that isn’t the case. But something needs to be done. I can’t go on much longer like this.

Chococolatechip is doing better today. She is in a baking mode. Chococolatechip already made chocolate crinkle cookies. She plans on making a batch of peanut butter cookies. She said she will bring me some when she visits on Dec 11. I will be looking forward to that date.

7:46p.m. I spent most of the day in bed sleeping. I got very little care from the aides. So I laid in urine most of the day. Isn’t that a nice way to spend the Christmas holidays? At least I had good meals. I had turkey and dressing with pumpkin pie for lunch. Then I had two s?iced of pizza for supper and a cup of pears. I can’t bitch about the food for the most part. It’s the complete lack of care that drives me mad.

At one point I planned on moving to the Geriatric Center in Weirton. They put me on an eight month’s waiting list.Eight months has passed I haven’t heard from them. I heard from a reliable source that all nursing homes have the same problem. So I can’t see moving from one shit hole to another. It’s just the way it is.
