By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.

May The Lord give your family grieving mercies, comfort and peace during this new season in life.
So sorry that you didn’t make it in time to see her.
Very sorry for your loss. Wishing you peace as you mourn your loss.
Sounds similar to my FIL with dementia this past January . DH still says he can’t believe how fast he went once he got Covid.
I am sorry for the passing of your well loved step-mom, Marlene.
I have often thought that even with severe illness and old age, death still is so unexpected. It always feels like a surprise, even a shock, though she had dementia, had fallen, had covid, was ready and hospice was being called in.
May you have warm memories of your times with her.
RIP Marlene
You had the courage to write about it on the same day, I couldn't, probably take me much longer if not years to face anything after losing a parent, losing my remaining parent, I'm going to be very lost, a lost soul.
It's really tough comparing the time before and after, like two different people. This is the awful thing about this condition. I'm sure you'll have fond memories of your step-mother will comfort you as time goes time.
Blessings.
My condolences on the loss of your stepmother Marlene. She's dancing with the angels now, free from the burdens and limitations od the dreadful disease of dementia, thank God.
Sending you love and prayers, dear Dolly.
My condolences to you in this loss.
I can tell you that a fall is SO OFTEN the beginning of the end for our elders. Worse there's absolutely nothing we can do to prevent them given that this is usually an aging brain and poor balance issue. This is what I saw often as an RN and it is what took my own mother in her early 90s. A fall is sustained. Often no serious injury but a ride to hospital, sometimes a catheter placed or another infection, then treatment, then another fall and pneumonia. And on it went until the end.
Love out to you and your familyl.
I pray for supernatural peace and comfort to be with you and your family in the days ahead. And may you all find rest.
