Must Be Rocket Science

I really wonder at times, whether or not this is all worth it. I mean, at times it seems like the whole world is conspiring against me, in helping get mom the right care.

Oh the Doctor is great, and even our pharmacy is good, but when it comes to daily care, it seems like no one truly cares much these days. I mean there is Beacon Community Services, who keeps sending untrained, unqualified personnel to help Mom in being clean.

I know that isn't an easy task, washing someone else, and yet they take the job, so why is it so difficult to try and do it properly? Why does it become merely a job, and a way to simply get an income, while performing sup standard service?

Then too, we have the wife, who seems to resent my attention in keeping Mom healthy. I mean, yes, she is 92 years old, but does that mean you ignore her needs for your own selfish one's? Okay, it isn't easy, and one's own life becomes restricted by the obligation to keep her healthy, or at least feeling okay. One adjusts their schedule accordingly, so why does he feel it is wrong?

Maybe this is rocket science, or maybe it is just that people, even one's you thought you knew, don't care anymore but about their own selfish needs?
