Just before one o’clock in the afternoon on January 25th, 2013, I received an email from Jill Bechtold at Mathis & Murphy, P.A.. Attached was a scan of a letter — dated January 21, 2013 — which she had received from someone named Sam Chavin at Woodland Terrace. Jill wrote me: I received the […]
I found a “Notice of Collection and Special Offer” from J.C. Christensen and Associates, Inc. for $1170.23, addressed to mom and dated February 8, 2012. It notes that their client is Cavalry Portfolio Services and that Cavalry contracted J.C. Christensen and Associates, Inc. with regard to a delinquent HSBC Bank Nevada N.A. \ Orchard Bank […]
My sister sent me a bill addressed to mom and dated August 21st, 2012. It’s from Central Florida Podiatry for — as far as I can tell — a pedicure mom received on March 20th. She was at Grace Manor at the time. The bill is for $100.00 due to Dr. Agnes K Bartoszek. I […]
Shelly Sparace from Woodland Terrace called me this afternoon to ask me to fax (or scan and email) my paperwork to prove that I have Power of Attorney for mom. I explained to Shelly that I do not have PoA for mom, because by the time my sister and I were certain we should get […]

Apparently Nancy thought that she was calling mom. Mom’s friend explained that she’d been […]
Someone named Rosa from Woodland Terrace called while I was walking to lunch this afternoon. We had an amicable twenty-minute phone call about mom and her care. She was calling to see if I was the right person with whom to discuss mom’s care. She began by talking to me as if I had no […]
I got a call from Marie shortly after speaking with Ida Alvis. I assume it was Marie Garcia, the Admissions / Marketing Director at Woodland Terrace. (I’m not going to list the phone number here because, since I could swear I heard children playing in the background, I am almost certain she was calling me […]
Here is the email I just sent to my sister: [name redacted], Under no circumstances should mom be administered ECT. She shouldn’t be taking Haldol, either. Is Halifax hospital stuck in the 1960s or something? This is ridiculous. Wikipedia says, “[haldol] is by far more active against ‘positive’ psychotic symptoms (delusions, hallucinations, etc.) than against […]
