And We Have a Date...

for mediation! Next month, Nov. 11. Though the defense argued against it, saying they are not ready, the judge ruled in our favor and ordered a mediation.

And it's "court ordered" so everyone has to show up. Including me. Bob is excused because of his medical condition. So, I have to find someone to take care of Bob from 8:30 a.m. until ??? Maybe all day. Because he needs peg tube administered meds at noon, I will have hire a freaking registered nurse! jeepers... Our attorney says they will pay the bill.... but... I guess it will ultimately come out of our pocket--

Nice to know, I can only be replaced by an RN! Wow. Guess I'm worth more than I think.

I just hope the defense will come to the table with some serious offers and a willingness to negotiate...

Thank-goodness you won't have to wait too long before the next step. No RN could possibly replace you! A whole medical team couldn't.
Hang in there Diane.

Actually you can't be replaced by an RN, but it's close for a few hours.

Meditation will do you good!

Lets see.....if the RN worked a normal 40 hr week, you are worth at least 4.2 RN's....LOL. Then add into the works your doctor expertise, a bit of pharmacist, and a lot of physical therapist, I'd definitely say you are worth more than an RN. No one can replace what you are and have been doing so well.

I hope your mediation goes well and the defense doesn't go into a delaying action.

Take care of yourself as you care for Bob.

Hugs, Dan

I'm so glad the process is moving forward quickly. Sounds like it can't be soon enough. Good luck.

Keep strong in yours and Bob's needs. And TRUST your gut.
