Senior Citizen Issues - Assisting Your Parents
Hate replied to ROFL BOX's topic in Can You Help Me With This?
What a timely bump for this thread. My MIL is 85 and we’ve noticed an abrupt decline in her mental capabilities. We were out of town this weekend and called her as soon as we got back to schedule shopping with her. She didn’t tell us that she had fallen earlier that day. She ended up sitting on her couch for two days without food or water before finally calling a neighbor (she thought she was calling my wife). We got her to the hospital last night and it turns out she has fractures in her hip. We are waiting to hear if she will need surgery or not. We were hoping to make it to the summer before getting her into assisted living, but it looks like our timeline just got accelerated. -
Hiring a 72 old coach that cares more about his pleasing his sugar baby than football will be an entertaining trainwreck for everyone to watch.

I know many are waiting for the flexiwing for Red Bull, but are there other upgrades that have been rumored for the other teams aside from AM who basically have given up on this year?

And our stupid as fuck electorate will largely buy it. So fucking frustrating living in a country of morons.

Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: They Can't Keep Getting Away With This

Is there an observer effect on Surly, where we can prevent these derails by calling them out beforehand? -
the only correct reply to this is FAFO President Huff & Puff is going to spend a lot of time and effort trying to put the toothpaste back in the tube, and then telling you it was Bidens fault that there was toothpaste around to start with.

Wow. I think you know- that is quite a commitment that you have taken on. You didn’t ask for advice, but I’m going to offer some (and it occurs to me, I need to start discussing this with my wife, about my MIL)- You mention not wanting to move her into assisted living, for fear that will accelerate the inevitable decline. I get that. There are different stages of decline, and different levels of assisted living to correspond: Medical help available Regular medical care provided Memory care My recommendation is that you decide now, while she doesn’t need to go into assisted living, at what point she will have to go. If you decide now, while there is no pressure bearing down, it might be easier to act on it later, when needed. And maybe your choice is that she never goes into assisted living. It’s your choice, after all (I assume you have POA). Good luck and God bless. -
Official Coach Sark Thread of Dominance—haters back off

I think you mean the Guaranteed Touchdown play. -
All the Nuggets have to do in the non-Jokic minutes is go like -3 instead of -33.

If we cancelled, we would have all missed the Winfield show!

He's not a strike thrower. It's just not his thing. It's why he's an 8th inning guy (closer in waiting for someone else) instead of a really good #2 starter like Brent Strom thought he ought to be. Such is life.

The more only thing more predictable than that was the market rallying after throughout the day.

Texas Rangers 2025: Pitching has been fire. Bats not so much.

Love it. 15 runs and not a single HR. I'm certainly not opposed to HR's, just nice to see the full lineup hitting. -
If it had been the left eye it could have been saved. But the right is quite incurable. (that might be from Zadig...)
