Post #12: Success!!!!!

A quick note before the night is through: Thanks to extraordinary efforts by John, Mom is now covered by MediCal and will remain in hospice at the Manor Care facility. The hospice social worker assigned to Mother's case told both of us that she has never seen an approval done in one day! And count on John Kornfeld to do it! This really is a miracle!

So Mother will stay in Room 113 at Manor Care until Monday when she will be transferred to a different wing in the same facilty. My sister Marcia and I approved the new room which will be Room #902. It is a double but Mother will have the window bed - looking out on a tree and flowers. The section also has a beautiful inner courtyard/patio filled with chairs & tables, flower beds, and lots of sunshine. They assured us that Mother would be taken out there periodcially to sit in the sunshine and enjoy being outdoors.

So a remarkable day! More details about today, tomorrow.
