At 80 I no longer have the strength to clean my bathroom and his or wash his clothes, rugs, etc, washing my own. He has done the laundry once since that happened. Rugs are soiled and need washing, he just says he doesn't care if they are dirty. <br />I told him about your entry and getting salmonella from Riley. His answer was he did not 'believe' it. He always says that if something boggles my mind about advancing alcoholism. Now his cataracts are hanging down and my sister told him she was warned if there are complications like her diabetes the cataracts need to come off early not later. He could experience blindness if there is a complication from an over ripe cataract. He promised his doctor he would come in and have blood tests. Has he done it yet? No. His housekeeping is sinking back into non existence although he is finally washing the dishes every few days so as to try not to feed an overwhelming cockroach population in his apt. Even though manageement has given him a whole supply of sticky papers. Feeding them is the culprit. I hope Riley has stopped his campaign to get a car at his disposal. Oh Lord help us and Lord help the people on the road if that ever happens! You are fighting the good fight, Linda. Doc wanted to know why you don't leave him. I explained daughter situation. Good luck and Lord give you strength!Gerryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00771917880182186281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6759421079279172044.post-75221961457810974512012-01-28T12:29:42.585-05:002012-01-28T12:29:42.585-05:00How delightful .
