Find Care & Housing
I had my video chat with my grandmother. She knew it was me immediately, which I was relieved about. We chatted a little about nice things. I did want her to hear from me about my dad’s health as it seemed the right thing to do. It was confusing-at first she asked who my dad was-when I mentioned his name she said, oh, he’s in the hospital. I tried to convey to her that he couldn’t continue to act on her behalf but I could see that was just bouncing off her. She told my uncle she thought my father was on a job somewhere. She also thought she’d already signed documents.
I gave up because she can’t make this decision and we can’t make her sign anything-she needs to be aware of what she’s signing and why.
I changed the subject to our birthdays, which are coming up and told her I’d send her something nice. I also let her see and talk to her great granddaughter and told her I loved and missed her. My uncle is going to pursue guardianship now as there appears to be no other choice.
many have suggested that I make the call with my father but he is in a nursing home and I can’t be with him because of Covid. He is planning on having a video chat with his mother so maybe seeing him will help. That was his decision.
