Well bobbie 2 hours a day for a quad living alone with no family help is 
cutting it close. I cant see how you could get a bowell routine and shower done 
and cleaned up in that time. That's not accounting for a basic microwave meal 
and throwing a load in the wash. She might be able to pull it off if she was 
proactive and did everything she could herself. Its easier said than done, Im 
sure she deals with depression and the rest of the usual probs that a quad on 
their own faces. This might be a precursor to trying to get her to throw in the 
towel and go to a nursing home. Its hard to believe they can cut 6 hrs down to 
2 and get away with it. Pete can help her for awhile , but eventually he will 
have to move on. I hope she figures something out, but I cant imagine 
what........it doesn't sound like family is going to take up the slack.

Dawn has been living in my/our section 8 apartments since 1995. The VNA has 
been taking care of all her needs and she worked her way up to 6 hours per day, 
7 days a week.
She has ALWAYS treated nurses and aids as her "staff" "They work for me." She 
would always tell me. She did not treat them well at all. The agency has now 
cut her hours down to 2 hours per day.
She called Pete for "Help" I have now idea where or what is going to come or 
happen from this.
