Thank you so much for the contact katiebell. I have called Cincinnati/ Ms. O'Neill at this site and left a message. Don't know if this program applies to a brain injury from stroke or not but worth a shot. Thank you again for the info. I also appreciate the concerns from LMAO and Bo also. Your thoughts are very much welcomed. God Bless. ]]> Sun, 14 Aug 2011 09:32:30 +0000 http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1138&PID=29069&title=alzheimers-support-group#29069 Alzheimer's Support Group : LMAO wrote: Vet sorry... http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1138&PID=29062&title=alzheimers-support-group#29062 Author: Bocephus

I agree with you 100%,why is it that honest people that work hard all their lives are refused help in times of tragedies but they are expected to keep working and pay taxes so that worthless drunks and drug addicts can sit back and collect welfare benefits.This just stinks!

Mike- she is 60. Turned 60 in January. Had to wait for transportation from Midd. Seniors until she turned 60. Again, thank you for the effort and contact. More importantly, thank you for caring. ]]> Sat, 13 Aug 2011 09:27:46 +0000 http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1138&PID=29057&title=alzheimers-support-group#29057 Alzheimer's Support Group : Vet, I happened to... http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1138&PID=29053&title=alzheimers-support-group#29053 Author: Mike_Presta

Vet,

I happenedto run into a couple of folks who are pretty familiar with the services offeredby the MASC earlier this evening.  Idiscussed what I know about your situation, and they agreed that ElaineMcNabb was the proper placeto start.  They also felt that your wifeshould qualify for the home-delivered meals program, provided she was over 60years of age.  (I told them that I wasunsure of that, since you seemed to be the “cradle robber” type!!! LOL)

Please keepme advised.

Mike..

Yes, I have spoken with the people at the Midd. Senior Citizens. We receive transportation from them from Ron Evans, the Trans. supervisor. They take her to and from her doctors appts. and we have made donations to them for that service. Haven't received anything else from them though. We were just denied Medicaid from Jobs and Family Services in Hamilton. Said she and I make too much money per month and had too many assets to qualify. No Meals On Wheels and no one to come in for a couple of hours per week to bathe her and to let us run errands/give us a little break. I sent them a letter after the denial as I thought it was a waste of time to appeal their decision. Thought the appeal outcome would be the same and I don't have the luxury of taking off work to accomodate their appeals system. Assets are assets I guess. As I have said before, we are too poor to afford $30-$50 per hour for private care and too "rich" to qualify for Medicaid. My son and I work full time jobs and take turns as caregivers for her. We don't have any family in town that can help. She has to be watched 24/7. Don't understand that this lady thinks they can help us with more services but will call them again. Perhaps she knows more than the first person I talked to at the Seniors Center. Thank you for the tip and for caring. and remember..."if in doubt, throw the incumbants out" ]]> Fri, 12 Aug 2011 17:08:08 +0000 http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1138&PID=29051&title=alzheimers-support-group#29051 Alzheimer's Support Group : Vet, Please do call... http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1138&PID=29050&title=alzheimers-support-group#29050 Author: Mike_Presta

Vet,

Please docall that number (217-2481) and ask to speak with Elaine McNabb (spelling?)

I’ve alreadyreceived a call from someone familiar with the services provided by the MASC (MiddletownArea Senior Center), and this person thinks that they can help.

Vet,

Have youspoken with anyone at the Middletown Area Senior Center???

I am not100% certain, but I believe that they have people who can advise you onthis.  If nothing else, perhaps they can leadyou to the right agencies.

At the veryleast, their Meals-on-Wheels program will deliver a nice lunch every day, andprovide transportation to and from doctors or therapists when you cannot.

I realizethat those would only be small steps in your case, but here is their number:217-2481.

I hope thatthis helps.
