I'll admit that I don't know all the particulars in regards to DH's grandfathers situation. He was in the process of seeking hospice care when he broke his hip and went straight to the hospice facility after being released from the hospital. Having a broken hip is supposed to be VERY painful. The main thing I remember is the doctors said that it was incredibly important to quality of life (only if it was a small remainder of life) to have the hip repaired. I think that it may be because the entire pelvis can become unstable.

That happened to my DH grandfather when he was in his late 90s. There's something about the hip that requires it to be fixed regardless of age. His was fixed when he was considered terminal.

Can you have it set up so the 9 yo can only sign out if she's with your 10 yo?

I'm not sure about the pass, but we did just have one of their meals in December. The food was awful and I wouldn't pay extra for something special again. Feeding the sting rays was super fun. The dolphins were okay, but really not as interactive.

What to do about this bad paint?
anotherbrother replied to Jean in Newcastle's topic in The Chat Board
Personally I wouldn't buy paint from the hardware store. Definitely go to the paint store. Benjamin Moore Aura is the best in my opinion. You'll pay more for the paint, but you will also need less of it. You should need less than a gallon for most bathrooms. -

Beautiful! -
would you report an employee to management who . . .
anotherbrother replied to gardenmom5's topic in The Chat Board
I'm almost positive I know the store you're talking of. Most of the time they are very friendly, but I've had a few less than helpful people. I would call and tell someone, it's not acceptable to be rude to customers. Maybe she was having a bad day, but she should have left it at the door when she walked into work. -
Possible stolen prescription, what to do?
anotherbrother replied to anotherbrother's topic in The Chat Board
I'll talk to him about this. I hadn't thought of it that way. -

anotherbrother replied to anotherbrother's topic in The Chat Board
That's a completely different thought. I'm not a police officer or doctor, but I don't think that this prescription would be a problem in terms of a traffic violation. He's more likely to get pulled over if he doesn't take them that if he does. -

Thanks! I like this idea the best. -

anotherbrother replied to anotherbrother's topic in The Chat Board
This is exactly my thought process. I don't think going as far as the police is necessary, but definitely filing a lost/found report at work. It's no fun to be suspicious of people you work with. -

His boss is already aware that he takes this prescription. My husband had a seizure at work about 18 months ago, and it's important that people are aware that there's a potential medical issue. DH is on very good terms with his boss. I suppose I should have more clearly said that he never intended to tell his boss that he thought that one person stole them. It was more of the mind that he'll probably have to tell his boss, and does he say he lost them or tell him that he thinks there could be suspicious circumstances about their disappearance. -

I agree with everything you said, but that doesn't fix the current situation. I'm sure whatever the reason they went missing he's definitely learned his lesson. As I said in a previous post these were not pain pills, but they do fall into a class of controlled substances. -

This isn't pain medication, but it falls under a similar scenario. Sometimes the Doctor is more agreeable about special circumstances than others. -

There are definitely plenty of people that don't fall into the norm. It's strange in that it wouldn't ordinarily be a topic of workplace conversation. If he's not able to get his medication replaced by the doctor he will have to say something to his boss. He can't stay awake without it. (Separate loooong story) We don't want to cast doubt on somebody, but at the same time he now doesn't feel very comfortable around someone that he needs to work closely with. He doesn't keep his pills with him, because it would be awkward to walk around with a pill bottle in your pocket. They are typically kept in his work bag that he keeps at his desk. -

It was his actually bottle of pills, not the prescription itself. If it were the paper prescription I wouldn't be worried at all. -

anotherbrother replied to anotherbrother's topic in The Chat Board
I totally agree about not carrying the whole bottle. It's a bad habit that we've talked about in the past. He's away from his desk quite a lot, which leaves plenty of room for suspicion. It definitely was overly coincidental that the topic was brought up totally out of context. We're waiting for the doctor to call back right now. Wish the were speedier sometimes. -
DH lost his Class 2 prescription at work. Class two has a higher level of control and to get a refill or replacement you must have a paper prescription. The doctors are very stingy about what dates they will write it on. He takes this prescription multiple times of day at work. His coworkers do know what it is. There is a new guy in his cubicle and it seems very suspicious that it went missing less than a week after the new guy moved in. He also made a rather strange comment to my husband today about how kids in high school used to abuse prescription drugs. DH last had it this morning in his car before he walked to the office. The walk is about 10 minutes from car to building. He's retraced his steps and searched his car. It's possible that it's just lost, but also possible that it's stolen. Question: Should he let his boss know that he's suspicious of his co-worker? ETA: It's the actual bottle of pills that are missing, not the paper prescription.

How to chew with molar build-ups (re: orthodontia treatment)
anotherbrother replied to Pegasus's topic in The Chat Board
My son had this, but his were white and looked much tidier than the ones in the picture. They felt funny for a couple of days while he was getting used to them, but after that it wasn't an issue. -
I'm so sorry. I'm very far from a patient person, and that might just send me off the deep end. I'll be thinking good thoughts for a favorable outcome.

R.E.M. fans... (and anyone who has heard "Losing my Religion")

I had one of those. I also had those thin plastic flexi records that played on it.
