I thought it might be worth posting this as it will happen to most of us who have to place in a MCF. But what surprised me was it is not just for the pwd it happens to the caregiver and I believe I suffered from having my Dw go to a geripych. I was sick for about 8 days. 

Some folks have talked about the strategies to help when you have to move. This is a short read and I hope it might be helpful to someone on the journey. 

I am writing my Dw life bio for the caregivers to use, I don't know who had posted about doing this but that will be worth it's weight in gold if the caregiver use it. I am gonna be careful about exactly what goes in it.

Sorry you'll have to cut and paste or if you use an Android phone just hold down on it till it says open in new tab.
