What a task ...

[theonlyone]

as I was a carer to an old boy and he has now gone in to a care home ..his flat had to be cleared ...so roped in friends for wrapping of china etc ..that stuff all went to Age Concern .. had Furniture Now in to take what they wanted also gave somethings away ..rather than dump them ...so now just a trip to the dump with the remains ...not a nice thing to have to do ..very sad .. But the old boy is settling in to the care home as one of the carers makes a fuss of him ... also it's a really nice place ..clean ..good food .. activities eveyday ...so good for him...and for me as I couldn't cope any more ...but I feel guilty that he had to go ....

Hi Onlyone, I am sure your old boy is in the best place.

Don't go beating yourself up!!

You did your best. Sad I know.

Hi the - It is sad to be the one to clear away a persons belongings from their home, such a collection of memories of their 'existence' there, a closure. Take care xxx
