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.

There was prescription drug used as an appetite stimulant when My Mom was going thru a weird phase. This was around 8 years ago so forgive me, I don’t remember too many details.
Mom’s Dr explained the medication to me. The medication was marijuana based. Marijuana is illegal in my state so I am guessing it was not natural but synthetic. This prescription drug was NOT the synthetic marijuana bought on the streets that makes people crazy.
This drug was very effective as an appetite stimulant. It did not make my Mom “high”.
This drug was used for a short period of time while the Dr tried to figure out why my Moms metabolism was in overdrive. Mom was eating like a horse but was losing weight pretty rapidly. Moms quality of life was still good and she was still living at home on her own. Mom was also a lot younger than your GM.
I HOPE your GM is not being given the street drug “synthetic marijuana”, which I don’t think is marijuana in any form at all!
There are a lot of holes and missing facts in your posts. Please try to fill them in so we can help. But, if you feel your aunt and grandfather are procuring illegal drugs and giving them to your grandma, you may need to call the authorities.
My mom never drank alcohol, smoked cigarettes or pot, took pills and always ate right. Now her health is terrible and she has dementia. Age is the enemy. Cells age. ☹️
Now she takes an antipsychotic med and I wish she didn’t.
By the way, i cannot see employees standing on street corners trying to purchase this item which is illegal in Maryland since 2013. So I really doubt that the Assisted Living facility is giving this illegal drug to any of its residents.
