GIGI: this is me Donna-Arthur's mom. I have been with Arthur as he is/was in the hospital. his had a surgery, his sugar is level again after a month being in the hospital, his had a lot of complications as to where they inserted a Cap acorn? he started getting a attitude of eating the same food daily, he received his income (monthly) so he would order food elsewhere against the dietician, they did not bath him, they somehow lost his cellphone and it upset him/I because he just bought it and never got to use it to relax his mind, he cannot use the phone but uses google to set his music up to sit and relax-that did not happen, the hospital states that is an issue they cannot do anything of it. well, I went to the Howards Medical Supply to pick his electric wheelchair up and they refused his chair. because he was going to go to an rehab center, but the sad issue is the ending was, the rehab center refused/Denied Arthur, so they pushed his paperwork to an Comprehensive Care mental health center. no bed date set but was waiting, the doctor talked finally to me, stating they need to release the bed to another patience who wants help that Arthur is not complying with their rules that he needs are not important enough no more so his going to be released and it's up to Arthur as to where he will go, maybe to an Homeless shelter etc and that made me mad, sad etc I explained actually begged them to be considerate of his disability (no legs) but they would not. I made a mistake and told Arthur, and he caused himself to be taken to the Mental/Comprehensive place. so, he is really mad, he called me every which name, I came home hurt in my heart reaching out for someone to hear the cries from Arthur's heart and mind. all I get is, I will call you back. So Arthur is going out into the cold, his got no equipment to get around, the hospital refuses to give a wheelchair, So I am scared, worried and bawling my head off-wondering what can be done. his got no home now his rent is High
gigi: Wish you was a lawyer. at first Arthur was appreciated of me calling 911 and him being admitted plus the surgery with all the complication with his sugar being at 25. now he cusses me, calls me the B word. he says his in prison (guess) his still in the hospital. before I left so he would not see the pain I was hurting for him, he was whispering-Let's go-mom I replied: I can't pick you up, I have no strength, then he started yelling, I told him go ahead and yell at me, If I was able to take you out of here, you would still do this to me, I said I would be back. I cried and cried, after I left his room. I asked: God Why? do you allow my son to struggle? why? have them mistreat him and get away with it and I say that by them putting promises to him, the IF word comes out with obligation to get the healing and now his having to go by their words or get out and live on the street. they said they would Help him get into a assistance living, theyy would help him with a care worker, they would help him get a bed, a new motor scooter to get around and now they are not going to do anything. His not human no more, his rejected, ignored and not cared for. What can I do beside Cry out to God, Jesus, with the word. HELP the disabled, my son. His own brother (the oldest) rejects him, his twin brother wants to live in Arthur house still but does not want to care for Arthur, His dad will not assist Arthur either. I am basically the only one who is showing up for my son Arthur and his deny me now out of anger. I feel real hurt. I want to die but I would leave him alone and not knowing how his suffering might be worst, so I best not die. HELP it's getting to the point I am getting worn out as well-trying to be around and by him. I had to come home but I have to go back Tomorrow to take his phone to him.
Thanks for the update. I am continuing in prayer for Arthur.
It is incredible that case workers cannot find safe place for him to be released to. May God's mercy be effective in his life and situation.
I am continuing to pray for Arthur and yourself.
Just wondering, does he have you or anyone else as a power of attorney or guardian?
I ask this because, if so, then the doctors and nurses and social workers can legally speak with this person concerning Arthur and his care.
When you are in the room with Arthur, does the staff fill you in?
I can tell that this is so very hard for you. I am sorry that things are not coming into place as you or Arthur needs.
Be persistent in calling on the Lord. He does hear you.
