The Boss was born disabled and now has dementia.
Negatives (Non-exhaustive)
Technically, the Boss wants to return home, but is not of sound mind and body. Ridge Meadows Hospital officials told me today the Boss was being placed, and I am not going to argue. Even if I was to argue, Fraser Health can deny homecare service, so I have no other good option.
The Boss is a Christian believer and based on historical, biblical, New Testament scripture, Paradise awaits those who die and in spirit essence await the resurrection ( Luke 43, 2 Corinthians 12, Revelation 2, see also Philippians 1).
I am mixed on this move as the two of us have not had a good discussion in years and so in a sense, she has already mentally significantly died.
I will continue to visit her and pray for her.
Her income will go to paying for her care.
Positives (Non-exhaustive)
I am a default condominium owner (I homecared since 2002).
Structurally, the condominium is impressive, but it does need renovations, or I can leave it as 1980's retro...
No, I will not live it retro (entirely).
I am free to plan my trips to Europe, the British Isles, and perhaps the United States of America.
Reasonable affordable mortgage and strata fees.
Ridge Meadows Hospital was quick to honour their word and the Red Cross will be here next week to take all of their medical equipment from the living room. I will be left with the use of the downstairs living room.
And no leisure-furniture in it, as my loft has served as my living area.
Any ideas on furnishing my soon to be empty living room, with the first television (my second one is in my loft) and old cabinets and shelves from the Boss, please advise.
I am thinking a couple of these (below) to start as I live upstairs, remember! All, I need is to perhaps temporarily host people downstairs while making dinner.
Although, from my childhood, our family dinner table in is the connected dining area. I am going to keep that...I sat at the same table as a baby, as far as I can remember.
