My wife was in a memory care facility, and I had just come home from some major surgery, and needed help. During the time that I had help, six different care givers came to be available if I needed help. When I felt well enough to move to an assisted living facility, I checked dresser drawers to see if everything was as it should be. My wife's 70 year old engagement and wedding rings were gone. Only 6 people had been involved in my care. One of the six ended up with some fairly valuable items.
No, I am not one of those people who have negative thoughts about care givers. In fact, I have provided some very positive comments to directors of the facilities that my wife and I have stayed in.
My best friend and her husband have heavy duty safes in their home, they are very nice looking. Another family I know, have their safe under cement and well hidden, never told a soul about it. Now that is safe.
I had a customer when I worked for a bank, bragging about the safe he was installing in his house.. REally? You are actually telling someone you are installing a safe? I told him the best kept safe, is the safe that nobody knows about...
He stopped talking about it....
Wouldn't that be nice if we could just not worry about these things, especially when we are caring for a loved one....If you stop and think... WE ARE ALL IN THE SAME BOAT, THIS EARTH IS GETTING SMALLER AND SMALLER and we need to all understand and get along...
SMILE, BE CORDIAL AND POLITE. BE NICE..
But don't let your guard down... :(
Did you pursue any enquiries about this?
