roaming_kate23*Gene Hackman died from heart failure and Alzheimer’s and his wife died from hantavirus.Oof.Of all the ways to die Hanta is one of the worst.It comes on quickly, you don’t realise how sick you are and you’re dead.Plus she was a caretaker and she was taking care of Gene and that was her main concern, not her own health.
*We had several new people on our Meals On Wheels route.There was a bit of a time crunch because ny nephew had someplace to be, but it all worked out well in the end.Plus, they make sure that you’re not going too far out of your way.It hasn’t always been like that;before we had a binder that,if we weren’t going to one house we would have to go there anyways to avoid getting hopelessly lost.
This was in the days before GPS was a thing so it took a LOT more time but we managed. Then they said there was going to be an app that we would use on our router was skeptical but now, I can’t imagine life without it and even if we have a lot of people-which we hadn’t until this week- it more or less goes well. We have people who aren’t at home, or they don’t want the meals(that happens more than you would think.) One thing Meals On Wheels needs to change is their on hold music. I cringe whenever I have to call their office because it is TERRIBLE. “Screechy” is me being kind. Please bring back the shit kicker country music radio station that they had as hold music.That would be preferable.
