Chronology of an Old Woman's Death part 5
March 13th 2008 22:47
My husband gets on the phone and calls his sister, Sherry. Sherry says that Marvin, Claire’s youngest and only surviving brother (a retired banker at Claire’s bank) shows up at the nursing home to visit his sister. He starts asking Sherry where Ron, the grandson is. She tells him that he left in a huff. Marvin then told her that she needed to find a lawyer to help them deal with Ron. He tells her that he went to bank and spoke to old friends of his about what was going on. They allowed him to view surveillance tapes. Well, he started with the day she had her stroke and yep, there’s Ron, emptying out her safe deposit box of whatever it held. According to the time stamp it was within 2 hours of her going to the hospital. Right at the moment it doesn’t mean much, but I think it will in the future.
At least, this turned out to be enough for Sherry and Frank to go out and find a lawyer. They can’t see him for a week, but I’m looking forward to it.. As far as how Claire is doing, she’s hanging on. They put her on a respirator because her lungs are cloudy. Rob and Suzanne and Karen went in and started demanding that they “remove the life support.” LOL…the nurse laughed (I think she has their number) and asked why. The general consensus was that each day was costing too much money and…oh yes….they don’t want her to suffer. The nurse explained that this was normal procedure as they tried to clear her lungs and that this wasn’t technically “life support.”, more of a treatment. All any of them said was “Oh.”
God please don’t let my kids or sister never treat me this way!!!!!
More to come.
