My husband’s surgery was Friday; he was to be transferred to memory care after the surgery with a private pay caretaker 24 hours a day until Monday night.
The doctor decided to keep him overnight due to his pain level, age, and confusion.
Yesterday, he was quickly transferred to memory care and met by the private caretaker. They did call me, and I spoke to him; I told him I was taking care of my health issue and would “see him soon.”
Later, I received a call from the caretaker agency stating that he had hit the caretaker on the arm with a belt!!! She did finish her shift.
I knew he would be difficult, but nothing really prepares you for reality.
It’s 4:00 am, and I’m not looking forward to what today will bring!
