Please pray for Paw-Paw Doc and us. He was transferred into a nursing home but it has not been a good experience. It is filthy and an hour drive from us. We are currently trying to get him transferred to another nursing home only 20 min from us.
The problems we are running into is his dialysis situation. He has become so weak that Jason and I are unable to transfer him anymore in our vehicle but transportation is only available at certain times to take him 3 times a week to dialysis. (The nursing home medical vans).
Tomorrow morning my plan is to make some surprise visits to some nursing homes to inspect them and see how they operate. There is one in particular that seems to be our only option as it has on sight dialysis and he wouldn't have to leave at all. We have heard it may be questionable though. Please pray this all works out soon.
Doc's spirits are very low and he has asked multiple times to just come home, quit dialysis and go on hospice. Our wishes are for him to keep giving the dialysis a shot at a newer, cleaner nursing home a chance before we make that awful decision. It's been so hard to see his health going downhill so quickly and watch him suffer like this. Thank you so much.
