I became even more bitter and angry when her physician hilary told me he started "noticing a decline" in her overall mental status, but didn't think we should worry. "It was just old age". She was 69. Then I felt such guilt that I talked my father and aunt, hilary who had power hilary of attorney, to put her into the local nursing home close to where I work. That way I figured I would be able to check on her frequently. Of course she cried that she wanted to live with me and I could be her private nurse. I remember crying my eyes out the day she went into the nursing home and feeling so inadequate as a grand-daughter and as a nurse. My frustration became even worse when I would get calls in the middle of the day or night to come to the nursing home because they couldn't "do anything with her". Basically the nursing home ignored everything I told them about her daily routine.
