Sunday 3/27/22

5:25am I had another very bad night. I got to bed at a decent hour. The aid was very nice. I could not get to sleep and had a lot of incontinence episodes. Although I rang the call light, I could not get help. So I was laying in urine most of the night. In addition I had very bad arthritis pain in my legs.

I’m up now and in my wheelchair. They got me up at five. That’s ok I was already awake. I’m about ready to face another day in the nursing home. I sure could use a cup of co but will have to wait until they serve breakfast. I shouldn’t complain? I’m above the dirt But I sure wish I could get a decent night’s sleep.

6:00pm I had a shitty day I was in a lot of pain today. This was on the lower left side of my belly. It was a sharp pain and hurt like hell. I told the nurse about it and she did nothing To make matters worse I got yelled at by the Mean Bitch of an aid. She yelled at me big time for peeing myself and getting it on the floor. This and the pain affected my day in a very negative way.

I really felt depressed all day long. I seriously thought of moving to a different facility But the bottom line is Nursing Homes suck. I go to a new one and would get the same kind of treatment and neglect. Chocolatechip said I always see the glass half empty. She’s right. I guess that is the depression speaking.
