My dad is stricken with alzheimers yet refuses to wear the GPS tracking device required by the assisted living facility where he now lives. He cannot stay there unless he wears the necklace. He's being ornery about it. Any suggestions?

My neighbors father just went through that same thing. (he actually got out and they found him wondering on a bridge at night!)…He got booted and went to what they call a lock down facility, it is a place where the doors are locked and will lock when anyone approaches, assuming the issue is flight , this may be your only choice.

It sounds cruel I know, I feel for you, both my parents are heading that way…ugh!…

I read something recently that called us the tween generation, we just get the kids somewhat raised and on their own and then because people live so long now, we need to care for our parents, the generation without a break!…good luck..
