Bob, it's your caring attitude that moves mountains! If they don't learn anything else, they will at least know that I am loved and cared about.

Don, first and foremost I'm praying for a quick recovery for you.

I'm praying that the news coverage has the proper effect and can resolve this issue at this particular home for your and the other residents' benefit.

If I haven't said it before, thank you for your service. You deserve better than this.

They seem to be getting the picture. I'm now getting the best, most attentive care of my life - maybe too much so.

Scott, your letter to the Administrator (email) would be much appreciated.

I'm am still waiting for acknowledgement from Channels 6 and 8 in Tulsa. Now they tell me to report the incident to Channel 2 Tulsa. They are well known for kickin' arses.

I appreciate anything you can do to get this and other nursing homes up to full staff levels which would/could have prevented all of this pain and suffering in the first place. I don't believe the staff here has ever been at 100%, more like 60%. There are supposed to be two aides on my hall and I have seldom, if ever, seen that which is in direct violation to State guidelines.

Hope, all goes well and the matters at hand will be addressed for ALL of those who have not been treated right.

All my best to you, Don!


Cheers,

Everything seems to have fallen through a crack. No response from the VA, Corporate Office, three TV channels, Nada. I don't know if the authorities have acknowledged your protest emails or not. Meanwhile, my case gets progressively weaker as the stitches were removed and the bruising fades.

I haven't heard a peep out of the three TV stations. Perhaps Elder Abuse is to commonplace to be considered newsworthy.

The Corporate Office has merely transferred the former Administrator which only gives him a clean slate amid a hundred new helpless victims. Ludicrous!

Color me frustrated and confused.

Maybe its time to just be glad that he's not where he could do me harm anymore, Don.

Are they at least using 2 people to move you now?

Not consistently, Bob. In fact only one gargantuan Cherokee aide (don't imagine Cher) has put me down for bed the past two nights and she is one who has dropped me already some months ago. She's about 300 pounds (145 kg). Fortunately, she only pulled a muscle in my hip joint. Only took a few weeks to recover from that incident.

I don't have much choice in the matter if I want to go to sleep.

A pretty little black student (they call themselves black down here. John Wayne and I don't like to further divide ourselves with hyphens) cut me yesterday with fingernail clippers and she cried like a baby thinking I might report her and she wouldn't get her CNA license. Then my regular aide pointed out the scars that everyone else put on my head and face. She begged to be my aide when she gets her CNA license. She left one hand unclipped. I've come to recognize good students by the way they move either toward or away from tasks. Sheronda moved toward work. I want her as my aide and I will definitely recommend her to the Administrator. She has one more week of training but, already, she says that she loves me. How can I argue such flawless logic?

I pray for a rapid recovery for you.

I hope you had someone take pictures of you when you were hurt.

Mario, actually, at great risk to her job, the housekeeper took two very incriminating pics with her cam/phone but she doesn't know how to attach them to an email.

State Inspectors came yesterday from Oklahoma Department of Health so "It ain't over 'til it's over, Yogi!" They were appalled at the news that one aide is still putting me to bed at night alone and without help. That was the cause of the original "accident!"
